Has anyone been able to capture images from a Nikon DSLR with Pd?
I have a student who is able to control her dslr with osx "image capture" (space bar takes an image) but we can not seem to figure out how to capture directly with/to pd OR even trigger "image capture" with pd might work also for now....
BTW this is through the USB cable.
thinking out loud - can pd send a system wide event like "space bar" though shell maybe to "image capture"?
that is if pd can not control dslr directly

Hey, there is this;
http://puredata.info/downloads/gphoto
Although I haven't tried this extension, i _did_ use gphoto from commandline to control a camera.

that's done conveniently through the [shell] or [motex/system] with applescript.
example: to open VLC player send a message osascript -e 'tell application "Finder" to open application file "VLC.app" of folder "Applications" of startup disk' & to [motex/system]

if interested here is an example that works with applescript. takes a pic with a dslr, saves to ~/Pictures, deletes from camera, opens in Gem window:

Oh, that relies on system events. Alternatively you could also make an application through Automator and run this app from the shell in Pd.

yeah all events in one big message. too messy?
i tried quick to compile gphoto but my build machine is at home and i only have access to a dslr at uni so i didnt have a way to test today... maybe in a couple weeks time...

gphoto is a library for interfacing with cameras [0]
Ben Bogart wrote a gphoto external for Pd [1]
gphoto does probably work on OS X [2]
gphoto for Pd's makefile is only for Linux [3]
so at least some build system hacking is required, possibly more in depth code changes (if gphoto external for Pd has bitrotted out of sync with current versions of gphoto library)

all good info! thanks for quick responses!
any gphoto osx binaries laying around? ill compile this week if not....
i also forgot about the applescript stuff on osx systems... that might work fine too...
thanks m

Hi there,
Some time ago I made a system using pd + arduino to trigger my Pentax via infrared at specific time points. The goal was to take shots of paper objects jumping in a paper bed attached to a speaker. It is part of a series of studies of paper design and photography. See some photos here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/dlbh1642r4h0vtj/f-k8i1R23f (and work here http:// paperdesign.naveda.info)
It didn´t work well because there were hidden delays in the chain from PD to the Infrared led ...and the speaker was driven by pulses around 10 hz. I don't know if the patch is useful but the arduino code was based on the code from:
http://sebastian.setz.name/arduino/my-libraries/multi-camera-ir-control/
So, if you have no problems with latency, just build a arduino-pd system (see pduino), get an infrared led and have fun!
Let me know if its clear or if you need any help.
