Camera Class

Namespace: id3.Devices

Definition

Expands upon DeviceChannel to focus on camera data capture, including live feed management and snapshot functionalities, alongside maintaining a list of supported video formats.

applyParameters

Applies a set of parameters to the device.

checkCommand

(C++/dotnet): Checks if a specific command is available on the device.

checkParameter

Confirms if a parameter exists on the device.

clearDeviceFilter

Clears all set device filters, removing any type restrictions.

closeDevice

Controls closing the associated device.

getCurrentFrame

Fetches the most recent frame from the live feed.

getLastSnapshot

Fetches the most recent snapshot taken by the takeSnapshot function.

getMeasurementData

Retrieves a list of measurement data collected during capture sessions.

getParameter

Retrieves a device parameter’s value.

getParameterDescriptor

Fetches the descriptor of a device parameter.

getParameterList

Obtains all supported parameters, optionally filtered by category.

getParameterNameList

Retrieves names of all supported parameters, optionally filtered by category.

getParameterValueInt

Gets the integer value of a device parameter.

getSpecificFrame

Gets a specific live frame.

isPreviouslyDisconnectedDevice

Checks if the specified device was previously disconnected.

openDevice

Controls opening the associated device.

sendCommand

(C++/dotnet): Issues a command to the device.

sendCommandBoolean

(C++/dotnet): Issues a command with a boolean as result to the device.

sendModelCommand

(C++/dotnet): Dispatches a command to the device model.

setParameter

Sets a device parameter’s value.

setParameterValueInt

Assigns an integer value to a device parameter.

startCapture

Initiates data capture, allowing for an optional parameter to specify capture modes or configurations.

stopCapture

Ends the data capture process, stopping the live feed or any ongoing capture activity.
