How-to software (camera capture) guide for beginners

Hello,

I was wondering if there was a website/tutorial/document that I could use to start programming my Leopard Board DM365 in order to use it as a streaming platform. Everywhere, it seems to be very simple to capture some image and stream it over Ethernet so where can I find a good starting point?

I already have installed Linux on the board and I successfully have reached the command line. Now what should I do to capture images (and test it) with my Aptina 1.3MP sensor?

Thanks for the help,

Mike

    Mike,

    This seems to be something that leopard imaging will probably be able to offer with their platform when using DM365. 

    The leopard imaging forums http://designsomething.org/leopardboard/f/33.aspx might also be a source for getting some examples.

    regards,

    Hi Michael,

    The Linux Kernel Driver and sample applications for video loopback etc. are included in the Linux PlatformSupportPackage (PSP), in the LinuxSupportPackage (LSP), and in the DigitalVideoSoftwareDevelopmentKit (DVSDK). The versions for the DM365 EVM can also be used with the Leopardboard. The packages are accesible via TI's hompage:

    http://software-dl.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/sdo_sb/targetcontent/dvsdk/DVSDK_3_10/latest/index_FDS.html

    http://software-dl.ti.com/dsps/dsps_registered_sw/sdo_sb/targetcontent/psp/mv_lsp_2_10/02_10_00_14/index_FDS.html

    The documentation (pdf files) to the kernel video driver are included in the LSP, as far as I remember.

    Cheers

    Sebastian
