hscamwire 0.1 is now on Hackage. It provides a nice Haskellized layer over Camwire, a library to connect to IIDC1394 cameras (most scientific and industrial Firewire cameras) on Linux.
The binding exposes all of Camwire's functionality, except that the only mode for fetching frames is 16-bit monochrome. Adding more modes is quite easy, but this is all I use. If you have a need for another mode, email me and I'll add it. There is no documentation in the package at the moment. I will release a new version fairly soon once I have Haddock'd it, but there is a lot of detail in clib/camwire/camwire.h on the C side, and it translates nearly directly to the Haskell side. Camwire itself is kind of in flux right now as its author upgrades to a new underlying subsystem. As a result, I provide camwire 0.8.1 in a subdirectory (clib/) along with a Makefile to build and install it. When you compile code linking to hscamwire, you'll have to also link against camwire_1394. -- Frederick Ross Doctorant, SV/GHI/UPKIN, EPFL Graduate Fellow, The Rockefeller University _______________________________________________ Haskell mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell
