Hello,I've been designing an experiment for the introductory class in my department. The idea is to control a system based on color. I was going to use a webcam to do this. The problem is that I have a webcam from a 3rd party. Is it possible to use this webcam for the application? If it is, what device driver should I download? Finally, how do I integrate Vision Assistant with LabVIEW. I need to control the system based on the image capture. I apologize if this seems like a garbled mess. Thanks for any help you can give.Andrew

Hi Andrew! Would you be interested in signing up for the Vision Beta Program? This will include the new IMAQdx driver, which will include the updated USB driver. To sign up, go to ni.com/beta to sign up. I think this would be a good step in getting you up and running. Please, post back if you have further questions! Kristen H.

USB Webcam Use

Solved!

if your goal is to work with you ltener vision first note that the programs have a cost, in any case you can use them in mode of assessment and expire over a period of time

You can perform image acquisition only drivers from VAS , but for any treatment or handling or VDM VBAI you need , plus VAS . You can download the evaluation software from the following links :

Módulo NI Vision Development https://lumen.ni.com/nicif/us/evalvisiondevmodule/content.xhtml
NI Vision Builder para Inspección Automatizada (AI) https://lumen.ni.com/nicif/us/machinevisionbrochure/content.xhtml
NI Vision Acquisition Software http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/view/p/id/3818/lang/en

In this example, we will create a program in Labview to capture images from a USB camera to your application for further processing using the NI Vision module.
