Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: image processing Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: IOhannes m zmlnig (zmoelnig) Assigned to: IOhannes m zmlnig (zmoelnig) Summary: support for GiGE cams
Initial Comment: support for cameras using the "GigE Vision" (video over gigabit ethernet)
unfortunately it seems like there is no standardized (and free) implementation of GigE Vision. prosilica offers at least an SDK (for all platforms): http://www.prosilica.com/products/gige_sdk.html

Message: the problem with GiGE, is of course that the standard is not open, so people cannot a) build devices according to the GiGE standard and b) build APIs supporting the GiGE standard if they are not part of the AIA committee.[1]
however, there is a commercial API available from MVtec called "HALCON" [2], that should be able to grab GiGE-cameras (and other cool stuff). you can purchase their framework for $$$ (or get a free (as in beer) evaluation license (lasting only a short period of time)).
i have done the latter and implemented a videoHALCON backend for [pix_video], which seems to work so far (at least on linux) it comes with a README to get you going.
