Camera syncronization and GetFrameGroup()

Post by simone »

Hi,

I'm trying to get frame from 3 syncronized camera.

I've read and tried the sample code "FrameSyncronization" but it seems it doesn't work because it doesn't create a FrameGroup. In fact after the command "frameGroup = sync->GetFrameGroup();" the variable framegroup is all zero.

Any suggestion on what is the problem?

Thanks a lot!!!!

Hi,

I have the same problem.

I have 3 V100:R2 cameras connected to an Optihub2 usb. I run sample FrameSynchronization but Framegroup is Zero or Empty when it is created in "frameGroup = sync->GetFrameGroup()".

It is possible Synchronization by means of 3 camera connected usb to an optihub2?

Is sync->CameraCount() returning 3? Also are there markers visible to all 3 cameras when you are running the sample?

Yes, sync->CameraCount() return 3 and markers all visible. In TrackingTools my 3 markers are visible. When I close TT and I open sample it found 3 cameras, sync->CameraCount()returned 3 but it was waiting in the loop without capture 3 synchro-frame.

Any more idea?

Thanks a lot.

Can you try just using two of the cameras at a time to see if one camera is causing an issue?

I've tried with only two cameras but with the same results...framegroup is 0.

I'm using 2 of 6 V100:R2 cameras.

Any other ideas?

Sim,

Can you provide a bit more information about the wiring configuration of your setup? Are you using an OptiHub and/or sync cables, etc.
