Software Support
The Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera with Interchangeable Lens Base is compatible with the Raspberry Pi OS and various programming languages, including Python, Java, and C++. This documentation will focus on Python examples using the Raspberry Pi OS.
Example 1: Basic Camera Capture
This example demonstrates how to capture a still image using the camera module.
Code
```python
import picamera
# Create a camera object
camera = picamera.Camera()
# Set the camera resolution and format
camera.resolution = (4056, 3040)
camera.format = 'jpg'
# Capture an image and save it to a file
camera.capture('image.jpg')
# Close the camera object
camera.close()
```
Example 2: Real-time Video Streaming
This example shows how to stream video from the camera module to a web interface using Flask.
Code
```python
import picamera
from flask import Flask, Response
app = Flask(__name__)
# Create a camera object
camera = picamera.Camera()
# Set the camera resolution and format
camera.resolution = (640, 480)
camera.format = 'h264'
@app.route('/')
def index():
return '''
<html>
<head>
<title>Raspberry Pi Camera Stream</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Raspberry Pi Camera Stream</h1>
<img src="/stream" width="640" height="480">
</body>
</html>
'''
@app.route('/stream')
def stream():
return Response(gen(camera), mimetype='multipart/x-mixed-replace; boundary=frame')
def gen(camera):
while True:
frame = camera.capture(format='bgr')
yield b'--frame
Content-Type: image/jpeg
' + frame.tobytes() + b'
'
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=8000)
```
Example 3: Object Detection using OpenCV
This example demonstrates how to use the camera module in conjunction with OpenCV to detect objects in real-time.
Code
```python
import cv2
import picamera
# Create a camera object
camera = picamera.Camera()
# Create an OpenCV window
cv2.namedWindow('Object Detection', cv2.WINDOW_NORMAL)
while True:
# Capture an image from the camera
image = camera.capture(format='bgr')
# Convert the image to grayscale
gray = cv2.cvtColor(image, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
# Apply object detection using OpenCV
CascadeClassifier = cv2.CascadeClassifier('haarcascade_frontalface_default.xml')
faces = CascadeClassifier.detectMultiScale(gray, scaleFactor=1.1, minNeighbors=5)
# Draw rectangles around detected objects
for (x, y, w, h) in faces:
cv2.rectangle(image, (x, y), (x+w, y+h), (0, 255, 0), 2)
# Display the output
cv2.imshow('Object Detection', image)
# Exit on key press
if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
break
# Close the OpenCV window and camera object
cv2.destroyAllWindows()
camera.close()
```
Notes and Variations
The code examples above assume that the camera module is properly connected to the Raspberry Pi and that the necessary dependencies are installed.
The interchangeable lens base allows for a wide range of lenses to be used, each with its own characteristics and applications. Consult the lens documentation for specific usage guidelines.
The Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera with Interchangeable Lens Base is also compatible with other programming languages and frameworks, such as Java and C++. Consult the relevant documentation for examples and guidelines.
I hope this documentation helps you get started with the Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera with Interchangeable Lens Base. Happy coding!
