Description
This PR introduces a new
Cameraperipheral system that extends the kinds of video stream sources we support. Namely, we now support Video4Linux2 cameras, network cameras and websocket input streams.The new unified
Camerafactory automatically detects and initializes the appropriate camera type based on itssourceargument:V4LCamera(the default),IPCamera, andWebSocketCamera.Also, writing this PR required revamping/refactoring part of the image manipulation utilities to support multiple color formats (BGR, BGRA, greyscale) and common camera data types (uint8, uint16, uint32). These utilities now also have a "pipeable" alternative that allows chaining them on the acquisition hot path. This pipeline can be provided as the
adjustmentsargument.Deprecations:
USBCamerais now deprecated and migrated to use the new Camera backend to maintain backward compatibility. It will be removed in the future.
