Scorpion Vision Software is an open and independent
machine vision system. The implication of this has been the following:
The Scorpion Camera Interface description is available upon request to
enable user to interface their own cameras with Scorpion.
When the Scorpion project was started in 2000 the goal was to support USB
and Firewire cameras using the Microsoft DirectShow interface. This lead to
the development of the Scorpion Camera Driver:
- firegrab.dll - supports all DirectShow compatible camera devices
With this driver we are able to support most windows camera devices -
including usb 1.0 and 2.0 web-cameras and the complete range of DCAM
compatible firewire cameras. FireGrab.dll is implemented as a true
DirectShow interface but is enhanced with the Unibrain MS Stack SDK enabling
support for machine vision features like hw-trigger, format-7 and direct
register access for firewire cameras. More on
