Working with Windows PC

Test Software

Currently, a camera software is generally pre-installed with Windows 10 systems. You can test it by opening the camera software that comes with your Windows computer.
If you are using the Windows 7 system, or if the camera software cannot be found in the system, you can download and install the AMCAP test software provided by us from Resources->Softwares.

Test Steps

Window camera software
  • Search for "Camera" to open the software
  • Click the gear icon in the upper left corner to open the settings interface, where you can set the resolution for taking pictures or videos

  • Click the video or capture icon on the right to switch between recording and shooting
AMCap software
  • Download and install AMCap software
  • You can click on the Option option and select Video Capture Pin... or Still Capture Pin... to set the parameters of the image and video

Working with Raspberry Pi

  • Open the Raspberry Pi terminal, enter the command to install the Luvcview software
    • sudo apt-get install luvcview -y
  • After installation, enter the command on the terminal to open the software for USB camera testing
sudo luvcview -s 1920x1080

Working with Jetson Nano Developer Kit

  • Open the Jetson Nano Developer Kit terminal (open with Ctrl+Alt+T or mouse click)
  • Input the following command to preview:
    • nvgstcapture-1.0 --camsrc=0
  • After inputting, a preview window will open


Note: In practical application, you may need to call with a program, and you can refer to Opencv and other related image processing library materials by yourself

FAQ

Question: If the hand touches the back of the PCB, will the camera display abnormalities?

 Answer:
  • Do not touch the components on the back of the PCB with your hands to avoid affecting the electrical characteristics


Question: Does the module get hot during use?

 Answer:
  • During use, the module heats up significantly and may feel hot, which is normal.


Question: Why can't I control parameters like brightness, contrast, etc.?

 Answer:
  • If you are using Mac and Opencv, some parameter settings cannot be used, it is recommended to use Linux and V4L2 drivers.
