Saving webcam images into database

[bloodxrage]

Hi,

I have managed to acquire the image from my webcam through the vision acquisition software but now i faced a problem because i want the image to be stored in the database so that it could be view from a webpage( like a video stream).

What i did in my vi was just take the image out and connected it directly to the database and data is going in the database but when i tried to display it on the webpage it does not show.

Is it possible to do that and if so is there any tutorials i can refer to?

You should not save an image to database, since it'll make database slow, and difficult to write a web page to load image.

Save an image to specific location, and save image location to database.

Then, use <img> tag to call an image in web page.
