---BACKGROUND---
We have very little experience with programming for the LabView, but good experience with programming in general.
---SETUP---
In one end we have the newest LabView (8?) that is connected to several OPC driven PLSes.
In the other end we have a piece of custom hardware that grabs images from several analog cameras (surveillance machine)
We need to send the image from the surveillance machine to the labview
software as easily as possible. We have access to the sourcecode for
the surveillance machine to writing a custom protocol to send images is
no problem, the problem is the labview end.
My question is if there is a way to make labview connect to a machine
and download images from it, the exact protocol is no problem since we
can customize the hardware completly, a llI need is a connection where
images come streaming to it.
If not then maybe there is a way to program the labview to do the following;
- Connect to a machine on the internet
- Send commands to the connected machine
- Receives images in a loop until connection is broken
Hope anyone got any clues as to what I am trying to accomplish here.
Thanks in advance
