◆ NetworkCamera() [1/3]

firevision::NetworkCamera::NetworkCamera ( const char *  host,

Constructor.

Allows to initiate a NetworkCamera w/o specifying an image id. This can be done later with the set_image_id() method.

Parameters
hosthost to connect to
portport to connect to
jpegif true jpeg images will be transferred and automatically be decompressed, otherwise raw images are transferred

Definition at line 63 of file net.cpp.

◆ NetworkCamera() [2/3]

unsigned short  port,
const char *  image_id,
bool  jpeg = false 
)

Constructor.

Parameters
hosthost to connect to
portport to connect to
image_idimage ID of image to retrieve
jpegif true jpeg images will be transferred and automatically be decompressed, otherwise raw images are transferred

Definition at line 98 of file net.cpp.

◆ NetworkCamera() [3/3]

firevision::NetworkCamera::NetworkCamera ( const CameraArgumentParser cap)

Constructor.

Initialize with parameters from camera argument parser, supported values are:

  • host=HOST, hostname or IP of host to connect to
  • port=PORT, port number to connect to
  • image=ID, image ID of image to retrieve
  • jpeg=<true|false>, if true JPEGs are recieved and decompressed otherwise raw images will be transferred (raw is the default)
    Parameters
    capcamera argument parser

Definition at line 140 of file net.cpp.

◆ ~NetworkCamera()

firevision::NetworkCamera::~NetworkCamera ( )
virtual

Destructor.

Definition at line 184 of file net.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ buffer()

unsigned char * firevision::NetworkCamera::buffer ( )
virtual

Get access to current image buffer.

This will return a pointer to the current buffer. The buffer contains an image of the given colorspace, width and height.

Returns
pointer to image buffer

Implements firevision::Camera.

Definition at line 281 of file net.cpp.

Referenced by Bumblebee2CalibGtkWindow::~Bumblebee2CalibGtkWindow().

◆ buffer_size()

unsigned int firevision::NetworkCamera::buffer_size ( )
virtual

Size of buffer.

Gets the size in bytes of the buffer returned by buffer().

Returns
size of buffer in bytes

Implements firevision::Camera.

Definition at line 295 of file net.cpp.

◆ capture()

void firevision::NetworkCamera::capture ( )
virtual

Capture an image.

Although cameras shall operate with a continuous image flow where possible sometimes capturing an image means copying a buffer or advancing a buffer list pointer. This shall be done in this method. For a camera-using application it is mandatory to call capture() just before accessing the image buffer.

Implements firevision::Camera.

Definition at line 238 of file net.cpp.

References firevision::FUSE_imagereq_message_t::format, and firevision::FUSE_imagereq_message_t::image_id.

Referenced by Bumblebee2CalibGtkWindow::~Bumblebee2CalibGtkWindow().

◆ capture_time()

fawkes::Time * firevision::NetworkCamera::capture_time ( )
virtual

Get the Time of the last successfully captured image.

Returns a Time representing the time when the last image was captured successfully. Note that calling this function is only valid after capture() and before dispose_buffer() has been called – it is only valid when an image is currently available.

Returns
Time of the currently processed image. The pointer shall be valid at least until the next call to dispose_buffer().
Exceptions
NotImplementedExceptionthrown if Camera does not support time stamping

Reimplemented from firevision::Camera.

Definition at line 361 of file net.cpp.

◆ close()

void firevision::NetworkCamera::close ( )
virtual

Close camera.

This closes the camera device. The camera must have been stopped before calling close().

Implements firevision::Camera.

Definition at line 311 of file net.cpp.

Referenced by Firestation::get_window(), Bumblebee2CalibGtkWindow::~Bumblebee2CalibGtkWindow(), and FuseViewerGtkWindow::~FuseViewerGtkWindow().

◆ colorspace()

colorspace_t firevision::NetworkCamera::colorspace ( )
virtual

Colorspace of returned image.

Returns
colorspace of image returned by buffer()

Implements firevision::Camera.

Definition at line 411 of file net.cpp.

Referenced by Bumblebee2CalibGtkWindow::~Bumblebee2CalibGtkWindow().

◆ dispose_buffer()

void firevision::NetworkCamera::dispose_buffer ( )
virtual

Dispose current buffer.

Some cameras need disposal of the current buffer (for example to free space in a queue to retrieve the next image). This is done with this method. It has to be called after all work has been done on the image as desired. After dispose_buffer() has been called no further access may happen to the image buffer or undesired behavior may happen.

Implements firevision::Camera.

Definition at line 330 of file net.cpp.

Referenced by Bumblebee2CalibGtkWindow::~Bumblebee2CalibGtkWindow().

◆ flush()

void firevision::NetworkCamera::flush ( )
virtual

Flush image queue.

Some cameras may have an image buffer queue. With this it can happen that if the processing of an image took longer than desired it is needed to flush this buffer queue.

Implements firevision::Camera.

Definition at line 371 of file net.cpp.

◆ fuse_connection_died()

void firevision::NetworkCamera::fuse_connection_died ( )
throw (
)
virtual

Connection died.

Implements firevision::FuseClientHandler.

Definition at line 460 of file net.cpp.

◆ fuse_connection_established()

void firevision::NetworkCamera::fuse_connection_established ( )
throw (
)
virtual

Connection has been established.

Implements firevision::FuseClientHandler.

Definition at line 453 of file net.cpp.

◆ fuse_inbound_received()

void firevision::NetworkCamera::fuse_inbound_received ( FuseNetworkMessage m)
throw (
)
virtual

Message received.

An incoming message has been received and can now be processed. Note that if you want to work on the message after this method has finished you have to reference the message by calling FuseMessage::ref()!

Parameters
mmessage to handle

Implements firevision::FuseClientHandler.

◆ fuse_invalid_server_version()

void firevision::NetworkCamera::fuse_invalid_server_version ( uint32_t  local_version,
uint32_t  remote_version 
)
throw (
)
virtual

Invalid version string received.

The remote end has a different incompatible FUSE version.

Parameters
local_versionversion that the FuseClient speaks
remote_versionversion that the remote FUSE server speaks.

Implements firevision::FuseClientHandler.

◆ set_image_number()

void firevision::NetworkCamera::set_image_number ( unsigned int  n)
virtual

Set image number to retrieve.

If a camera is able to retrieve several images this method can be used to select the image to be retrieved with the next call to capture().

Parameters
nimage number to set

Implements firevision::Camera.

Definition at line 404 of file net.cpp.

◆ start()

void firevision::NetworkCamera::start ( )
virtual

Start image transfer from the camera.

For many cameras opening the camera and starting transmission of images are two tasks. This method will simply initiate the transfer after the camera as been opened. And exception shall be thrown if the camera has not been opened.

Implements firevision::Camera.
