Looking for example of webcam communication over LAN

[IgG_Kylin]

Dear all,

I'm trying to look for an example of webcam communication over LAN. 

in other word, I'd like to transfer video image from one PC to another over LAN. The video will be from a USB webcam installed in the first PC.

if you could provide me some example, I'll be appricated.

thanks

Dear igg,

Take a look at the examples here:

Transfer Images over the Network 

http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/3314

In general, you want to

1) flatten the images to string, and add compression on the sending end.

2) establish TCP (or UDP, etc...) connection and send compressed and flattened images

3) unflatten and decompress images on receiving end.

Hope that helps! 

Best Regards,

~Nate
