To perform any image processing, you will need to buy the NI Vision Development Module.  The Vision Acquisition Software will only allow you to acquire and save images from a camera.

When choosing a webcam you need to make sure it is compliant with the necessary protocols:

• For a USB camera, it needs to be DirectShow compliant.

• For a Firewire (IEEE 1394) camera, it needs to be DCAM compliant.

• For a GigE Camera (Ethernet), it needs to comply to GigE Vision.

If the camera is fully compliant with the standards, NI software should be able to interface with them using our IMAQdx drivers.
