2.12 Capturing Images using the Camera Connector

The DLP LightCrafter's embedded Linux system comes with the MT9P031 camera sensor driver. By

connecting this sensor to camera connector (item 14 in Figure 1-7) the EVM can capture images from the

sensor and send the image to the computer or to the DMD. For details about the connector, see

Section 5.2. The camera must be connected to DLP LightCrafter before the EVM boots to ensure the

sensor is detected.

To capture an image from the sensor and save the image to the PC, follow these steps:

1. Select the "Camera" tab as shown in Figure 2-54.

2. Click the "Capture" button.

3. Click the "Save" button.

4. To capture an image from the sensor and send the image to the DMD, click the "Preview" button.
