imaqhwinfo
Information about available image acquisition hardware
Syntax
out = imaqhwinfo
out = imaqhwinfo(adaptorname)
out = imaqhwinfo(adaptorname,field)
out = imaqhwinfo(adaptorname, deviceID)
out = imaqhwinfo(obj)
out = imaqhwinfo(obj,field)
Description
out = imaqhwinfo returns out, a structure that contains information about the
image acquisition adaptors available on the system. An adaptor is the interface between
MATLAB and the image acquisition devices connected to the system. The adaptor's main
purpose is to pass information between MATLAB and an image acquisition device via its
driver.
out = imaqhwinfo(adaptorname) returns out, a structure that contains information
about the adaptor specified by the text string adaptorname. The information returned
includes adaptor version and available hardware for the specified adaptor. To get a list of
valid adaptor names, use the imaqhwinfo syntax.
out = imaqhwinfo(adaptorname,field) returns the value of the field specified by
the text string field for the adaptor specified by the text string adaptorname. The
argument can be a single string or a cell array of strings. If field is a cell array, out is a
1-by-n cell array where n is the length of field. To get a list of valid field names, use the
imaqhwinfo('adaptorname') syntax.
out = imaqhwinfo(adaptorname, deviceID) returns out, a structure containing
information about the device specified by the numeric device ID deviceID. The
deviceID can be a scalar or a vector. If deviceID is a vector, out is a 1-by-n structure
array where n is the length of deviceID.
out = imaqhwinfo(obj) returns out, a structure that contains information about the
specified image acquisition object obj. The information returned includes the adaptor
