New Doodle Block
Capture From Camera With Res
The Capture From Camera With Resolution block is used to capture an image from a camera while allowing to select the resolution (in terms of width & height) of the input image.
Input
Cam ID: A camera ID to identify which camera will capture the image. You may use an integer value (0, 1, ...) to represent a USB Camera, or use the RTSP URL for an IP Camera.
Width: The desired resolution width (in pixels). The default value is 0, which sets it to the camera's default width.
Height: The desired resolution height (in pixels). The default value is 0, which sets it to the camera's default height.
Notice:
Please ensure that specified width and height values match the camera's supported resolutions. If not, the system will automatically adjust them to the nearest supported resolution. For instance, if you set the width and height to 1500 x 1000, but your camera only supports 1920 x 1080, 1370 x 768, ...; the system will adapt the resolution to the closest supported option, which is as 1920 x 1080.
Output
Image: The captured image from a camera.
Notice:
For USB cameras, you can find the ID in the Windows Device Manager. The first device under the 'Camera' section is camID = 0, the second is camID = 1, and so forth. Note: The method may vary for other operating systems.
