Hello,
I am very new to embedded platforms.
I am trying to use a Microsoft® LifeCam HD-3000 usb webcam to capture video on the OMAP-L138 LCDK board. My initial goal is to simply capture video using the webcam and output the video to a monitor using the vga port. I am using Code Composer Studio 5.4.0 with an XDS100v2 JTAG emulator to test the programs. I am also able to use Tera Term to view the Linux system on the board
When I am using Tera Term and I have booted up the board, I can plug in the webcam and the following output occurs:
root@omapl138-lcdk:~# usb 1-1: new full speed USB device number 4 using ohci
usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=045e, idProduct=0779
usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
usb 1-1: Product: Microsoft® LifeCam HD-3000
usb 1-1: Manufacturer: Microsoft
I guess my question are as follows:
-How do I control the webcam?
-How do I take the captured images and output them via the VGA port?
-Is there example code capturing video using a USB webcam? (I have searched extensively and not found anything I recognized as useful).
Thank you very much in advance for any help!
