Vision Acquisition Software

[barney99]

I would like to add the capability to acquire video from an Axis camera, and I understand from previous conversations with tech support at NI that this is possible with the Vision Acquisition Software included in my NI software package.

Can anyone suggest a good place to start with examples and documentation for using Vision Acquisition Software in Labwindows to capture video?

Barney99,

Here is a KB that shows where you can find some text-based examples for NI Vision.

Thanks for the reply.

I could not find any of the vision examples referenced on the link included to your reply.  The folders simply do not exist on my computer.

Also, it looks like there are numerous examples for what seems to be vision related NI hardware.  I was told 1000's of cameras can be interfaced with using the vision acquisition software - presumably without additional NI hardware.  Not sure where to find examples for connecting computer to camera type applications.
