hI!
How could i activate a webcam from my laptop Dell1420 across arduino, using a PIR sensor. My project try to link processing with arduino, so, when someone cross the PIR sensor range, the webcam start to capture the images.
this is the processing source code.
import processing.video.*;
Capture cam;
void setup() {
size(640, 480);
// If no device is specified, will just use the default.
cam = new Capture(this, 640, 480);
// To use another device (i.e. if the default device causes an error),
// list all available capture devices to the console to find your camera.
//String[] devices = Capture.list();
//println(devices);
// Change devices[0] to the proper index for your camera.
//cam = new Capture(this, width, height, devices[0]);
// Opens the settings page for this capture device.
//camera.settings();
}
void draw() {
if (cam.available() == true) {
cam.read();
image(cam, 0, 0);
// The following does the same, and is faster when just drawing the image
// without any additional resizing, transformations, or tint.
//set(160, 100, cam);
}
}
