Image Capturing With LabView 6 (again)

[Micha³ G³êbowski]

how can I use my digital camera or web cam to get pictures from it?
all my cameras use Twain drivers so are there any support for Twain
in LabView?

My cameras are:

Mustek GSmart Mini II
Kodak DC-280

Michal,

You can use your cameras that have Twain drivers with LabVIEW. Although National Instruments does not directly have any tools for Twain drivers, you can make calls to the Twain API directly or you can use a toolkit which has done this for you. Graftek has a Twain toolkit for this type of application. Also, KB 16M8P2QH discusses this issue in more detail.

I have also been trying to access twain devices recently.

If you want to avoid the pain of accessing the twain DLL directly you can go on this web site and download an intermediary DLL that simplify the task (one version is free).

The Dll (as well as documentation) can be freely downloaded from (http://www.dosadi.com/products.htm);

Note: the authors include some VB and C++ program examples.

Good luck
