Installation of USB image acquisition driver in Linux

It is difficult to collect images from USB cameras in ARMlinux. Compared with the installation of the camera driver in LINUX, the following describes the installation process.

The linux version I used is RedHat Enterprise linux AS 4, which is basically completely installed. The camera uses the zc0301 chip of xingwei, which requires the spca5xx driver. If linux does not have this driver, you need to install it on your own.

First, download some driver code, and search for the following in google.

(1) install the spca5xx driver

# Tar zxvf spca5xx-20060501.tar.gz
# Cd spca5xx-20060501
# Make
# Make install

(2) install sdl

# Tar zxvf sdl-1.2.12.tar.gz
# Cd sdl-1.2.12
#./Configure
# Make
# Make install

(3) install spcaview

# Tar zxvf spcaview-20050501.tar.gz
# Cd spcaview-20050501
# Make
# Make install

Install the executable tool to/usr/local/bin, open/etc/profile, and add the/usr/local/bin path to the file. Restart the host.

The following uses the spcaview application to collect images.

# Spcaview-f yun-o test. avi can be used to view the collected image, but the image cannot be added here.
