How can i control my Sony camera?

2 次查看(过去 30 天)
I really need to control a sony HDR-AS30V through MATLAB image processing toolbox. I bought it specifically for this function and now I can't do it.
Can anyone help me? I can connect my webcam and other cameras but not this specific camera..
I really need to do this.
I really appreciate any help.

What operating system do you have? If you have Windows, does Windows see it in the Device Manager? Can the Sony software run it? If you run imaqtool and you see winvideo and you connect to that, does it use the Sony camera, or some built in or attached webcam? The Sony camera is supported by the Image Acquisition Toolbox: http://www.mathworks.com/hardware-support/index.html?q=product%3A%22Image%20Acquisition%20Toolbox%22&page=2

I suppose you’ve already looked here?

If the camera only presents itself as a mass storage device and not as a camera, then you're out of luck. Even writing your own drivers probably wouldn't help as the camera is not designed to be controlled.
The only thing you could, if the camera can be programmed to record still images at fixed intervals is set it to do so, and check the mass storage for new files appearing. Not exactly real time but possibly close enough

So I contacted Sony in 3 different languages but they all said the same: it's not possible to get images in real time with this camera in windows. Not by usb cable, not by wireless. There is just no way, at least a legal one. That's what they said.

Check the link I gave you for a list of cameras that you should buy that will work.

I have no idea. If Windows Device Manager sees it as an imaging device, then it should be supported at least as a generic winvideo device. Or you can try the webcam package http://www.mathworks.com/support/2014a/matlab/8.3/demos/webcam-support.html
