This tutorial talks about on how to use your webcam in your pc using EmguCV with C# as your code. So first create a project then name it whatever you want then after that add the following references in your project Emgu.CV.dll,Emgu.CV.UI.dll, and Emgu.Util. After adding those referrences add a new form then add a picture box.
So when you are done in designing your form, add the following codes.Excluding the using statements in the beginning, only 7 lines of code are required to perform a camera capture loop.
This example requires Emgu CV 1.5.0.0 or later.
- using Emgu.CV;
- using Emgu.CV.UI;
- using Emgu.CV.Structure;
- using System.Drawing;
- using System.Windows.Forms;
- ...
- { //run this until application closed (close button click on image viewer)
- viewer.Image = capture.QueryFrame(); //draw the image obtained from camera
- });
- viewer.ShowDialog(); //show the image viewer
