Ask HN: Machine Vision Advice

3 points by yogione 16y ago ↗ HN

I just got a machine vision project. I need to capture video of component testing, convert it to avi files. I need to be able to start/stop camera recording with a pulse, tranfer the data to a pc, render the video for analysis. Looking for advice/on-line resources regarding camera selection and camera control software Thanks.
