Video4Squeak is an older camera framework by Diego Gomez Deck. It only works on Linux via Video4Linux.
The CameraPlugin comes from Scratch. In the Etoys image you can find a CameraMorph that uses it. It should be in the Multimedia category of the Object Catalog.
That CameraMorph should also work fine in other images.
How do I get started with Video4Squeak from Physical Etoys? I have moved the video and audio .dll'[s and code to Squeak 4.5 but I don’t know how to start a camera displaying.
I want to work with the video to do machine vision like will be done in the DARPA Robotics Challenge. I know the first step after getting the software to work with a camera is to calculate contours. But I cannot find the Video4Squeak author or how to make it work and access the video frames to recognize visual objects.
I looked at all the Smalltalk code but I don't even understand where the code access the CameraPlugin.dll to be sure it's looking in the correct directory or working at all. Suggestions?
