Pure IDL interface for video cameras -- linux only [message #91119]

Dear Folks,

I spent the last couple of days coding up a video framegrabber
whose distinction is that it is implemented entirely in IDL,
with no external library. It makes use of the IOCTL() and READ()
interface to the Video4Linux2 API, and therefore can capture video
from any camera supported by V4L2. Given the nature of the interface,
it probably only works on GNU/linux systems.

The code is freely available under the GPL at
https://github.com/davidgrier/idlv4l2/

In principle, this interface can be extended to handle other
media devices as well. My own application only requires
greyscale video frame capture.

All the best,

David
