Exporting Image Acquisition Tool Hardware Configurations to
MATLAB
You can export the video input objects and their configured parameters from the tool to a
choice of multiple formats. You can then access the video object in MATLAB.
To export a hardware configuration:
1
Select File > Export Hardware Configuration.
The Export Hardware Configuration dialog box opens.
2
Select the file format from the Object destination list.
• MATLAB Workspace saves the video input object to the MATLAB Workspace
for the duration of the MATLAB session. (You can then save it before exiting
MATLAB if you want to retain it.)
• MATLAB Code File is the same as the File > Generate MATLAB Code File
command. It generates an MATLAB code file containing the video input object
and its configured parameters. You could then incorporate the MATLAB code file
into other MATLAB code or projects.
• MAT-File saves the video input object and its parameters to a MAT-file.
3
Decide what object configuration(s) to export.
