sarxos / webcam-capture

The goal of this project is to allow integrated or USB-connected webcams to be accessed directly from Java. Using provided libraries users are able to read camera images and detect motion. Main project consist of several sub projects - the root one, which contains required classes, build-in webcam driver compatible with Windows, Linux and Mac OS, which can stream images as fast as your camera can serve them (up to 50 FPS). Main project can be used standalone, but user is able to replace build-in driver with different one - such as OpenIMAJ, GStreamer, V4L4j, JMF, LTI-CIVIL, FMJ, etc.

Problem with autofocus #461

Open antonio-jdeveloper opened 8 years ago

antonio-jdeveloper commented 8 years ago

Hello Mr. Sarxos, I'm having a little issue using the api with a Tablet on Windows. The problem resides that I am trying to digitalize a Letter document using the camera, but the camera does not find the best focus with hardware, and as such it needs to be aided with software. I am willing to renumerate financially anyone who is able to bring efforts to solve this issue

Hi @antonio-jdeveloper,

Existing implementation of Webcam Capture API does not control parameters like focus, white balance, tilt, etc. On Linux this could be implemented on top of v4l4j, but I have no idea how this can be done on Windows or Mac OS.

I will keep this ticket open. Maybe there is someone who has more experience and can handle this issue.
