How to take a still picture.

Chanwoo_P_ · ‎09-01-2016

Hi,

I'm using R200 and librealsense on Ubuntu.

I've tried sample apps they provided and they all use stream to take a snapshot. The result picture turned out blur because I took a snapshot from a video.

Is there any API that I can take a clean still picture using R200?

I don't need a streaming preview.

Thanks.

Please don't spam the board with posting the same question multiple times.

I don't think the cameras are snapshot capable, so your only option is to take a frame from the video, which we've been doing with no problems. If you're trying to get an image of something which is moving and it comes out blurry, try increasing the capture frame rate and/or decreasing the exposure time.
