How to detect firewire camera on labview ?

[Asad_Tirmizi]

 have configured my IEEE 1394 Basler A-601F camera. It is detectable on MAX and it  video is being displayed by the vision assistant. I have labview 8.2.1 installed with the vision and motion toolkit. I need to get the video feed in labview for furthur processing. Do i need Vision Development module for that ? 

Moreover what is the process of getting video from a firewire camera in labview. Is it similar to getting the video for the USB cameras ?

Hello Asad,

If you wish to perform any processing (pattern matching, particle analysis, edge detection, thresholding, histograms, and optical character recognition), then you would need Vision Development Module. In addition, VDM includes Vision Assistant, a prototyping and code generation tool similar to VBAI in its menu-driven interface. Vision Assistant is a useful tool for developing and testing a series of image processing steps from which code can then be generated.
