Camera IP Node Documentation
The Camera IP node in AugeLab Studio is used to capture video frames from an IP camera. It allows you to connect to an IP camera and retrieve video frames for further processing within your data pipeline.
Node Overview
The Camera IP node connects to an IP camera using the specified address and retrieves video frames from the camera's video stream. It supports various stream qualities and allows you to configure the frames per second (FPS) for the video stream. The retrieved video frames can be used as input for further processing in subsequent nodes.
Node Interaction
1.Drag and drop the Camera IP node from the node library onto the canvas in AugeLab Studio.
2.Double-click on the Camera IP node to open the node properties panel.
3.Enter the IP camera address in the provided text field. The address should follow the format: rtsp://admin:[email protected]/Port No, where xxx.xxx.x.xx is the IP address of the camera and Port No is the port number.
4.Set the desired frames per second (FPS) for the video stream by entering a value in the FPS text field. Leave it empty or enter 0 to use the default FPS of the camera.
5.If you want to use stream mode, enable the "Stream mode" checkbox. This will allow you to select the stream quality from the "Stream Quality" dropdown menu.
6.Select the desired stream quality from the "Stream Quality" dropdown menu. This option is only available when stream mode is enabled.
7.Click the "Reconnect" button to establish a connection to the IP camera.
8.The Camera IP node will retrieve video frames from the IP camera and make them available as output.
Input and Output Sockets
Input Sockets: The Camera IP node does not have any input sockets.
Output Sockets: The Camera IP node has one output socket of type ImageAny. The retrieved video frames from the IP camera will be available as output.
Implementation Details
The Camera IP node follows these steps to capture video frames from an IP camera:
1.IP Camera Address: Enter the IP camera address in the text field provided. This address should be in the format rtsp://admin:[email protected]/Port No, where xxx.xxx.x.xx is the IP address of the camera and Port No is the port number.
2.FPS Configuration: Set the desired frames per second (FPS) for the video stream by entering a value in the FPS text field. Leave it empty or enter 0 to use the default FPS of the camera.
3.Stream Mode: Enable the "Stream mode" checkbox if you want to use stream mode. This allows you to select the stream quality from the "Stream Quality" dropdown menu.
4.Stream Quality: If stream mode is enabled, select the desired stream quality from the "Stream Quality" dropdown menu. This option provides different levels of video quality.
5.Connection and Frame Retrieval: Click the "Reconnect" button to establish a connection to the IP camera and start retrieving video frames. The Camera IP node continuously retrieves video frames from the IP camera and makes them available as output.
Usage
1.Drag and drop the Camera IP node from the node library onto the canvas in AugeLab Studio.
2.Double-click on the Camera IP node to open the node properties panel.
3.Enter the IP camera address in the provided text field. Make sure to follow the correct format: rtsp://admin:[email protected]/Port No, where xxx.xxx.x.xx is the IP address of the camera and Port No is the port number.
4.Set the desired frames per second (FPS) for the video stream by entering a value in the FPS text field. Leave it empty or enter 0 to use the default FPS of the camera.
5.If you want to use stream mode, enable the "Stream mode" checkbox. This will allow you to select the stream quality from the "Stream Quality" dropdown menu.
6.Select the desired stream quality from the "Stream Quality" dropdown menu. This option is only available when stream mode is enabled.
7.Click the "Reconnect" button to establish a connection to the IP camera and start retrieving video frames.
8.The Camera IP node will continuously retrieve video frames from the IP camera and make them available as output.
Notes
The Camera IP node provides the ability to connect to an IP camera and retrieve video frames for further processing.
Make sure to enter the correct IP camera address in the specified format to establish a successful connection.
The Camera IP node supports configuring the frames per second (FPS) for the video stream. Adjust the FPS value based on your requirements.
Stream mode allows you to select different stream qualities for the video stream. Enable the "Stream mode" checkbox and choose the desired stream quality from the dropdown menu.
The retrieved video frames can be used as input for subsequent nodes in your data pipeline.
Ensure that the IP camera is accessible and configured correctly before using the Camera IP node.
The Camera IP node provides a convenient way to integrate IP cameras into your data processing workflows in AugeLab Studio.
Utilize
the output video frames from the Camera IP node in other nodes to perform various operations such as object detection, image processing, and more.
Consider the network bandwidth and camera specifications when selecting the stream quality and configuring the FPS value.
The Camera IP node enhances the capabilities of AugeLab Studio for working with video data from IP cameras.
