Detailed Description

Commands that are supported by the camera (ArPTZ) and video classes.

ArCameraCommands defines the commands that are commonly supported by the Aria camera and video classes. The commands that are actually supported for a particular camera are specified in the ArCameraCollection.

There are basically two classes of commands:

1. Double Format Commands: These commands use the new double interface to the Aria camera classes. They are generally preferred for future development since they provide finer control over the camera movements. In addition, only these commands will work correctly in a multi-camera configuration.

2. Integer Format Commands: These commands are maintained for backwards compatibility. They will not work correctly in a multi-camera configuration. (Only the first camera will be used.)

Member Data Documentation

CAMERA_MODE_UPDATED

const char * ArCameraCommands::CAMERA_MODE_UPDATED = "cameraModeUpdated"

static

A packet that gets sent out when the mode is changed.

Note that each mode might have arguments after it for just that mode, so only the mode name at the start is generic.

GET_CAMERA_DATA_INT

const char * ArCameraCommands::GET_CAMERA_DATA_INT = "getCameraDataInt"

static

Returns the current pan/tilt/zoom of the camera (as byte2 integers).

Deprecated:

GET_CAMERA_DATA is preferred instead

GET_CAMERA_INFO

const char * ArCameraCommands::GET_CAMERA_INFO = "getCameraInfo"

static

Returns general information about the camera (in double format).

General information about the camera includes the pan/tilt/zoom ranges and whether zooming is available. In general, clients need only to request this data once at startup.

GET_CAMERA_INFO_INT

const char * ArCameraCommands::GET_CAMERA_INFO_INT = "getCameraInfoInt"

static

Returns general information about the camera (as byte2 integers).

Deprecated:

GET_CAMERA_INFO is preferred instead

GET_DISPLAY

const char * ArCameraCommands::GET_DISPLAY = "getDisplay"

static

Returns whether the camera/image should be displayed by the client.

This command is not yet fully supported.

GET_SNAPSHOT

const char * ArCameraCommands::GET_SNAPSHOT = "getSnapshot"

static

Returns a high resolution image from the camera, suitable for saving.

This command is not yet fully supported.

GET_SNAPSHOT_PLAIN

const char * ArCameraCommands::GET_SNAPSHOT_PLAIN = "getSnapshotPlain"

static

Deprecated:

GET_SNAPSHOT is preferred instead

GET_VIDEO

const char * ArCameraCommands::GET_VIDEO = "getVideo"

static

Deprecated:

GET_PICTURE is preferred instead

SET_CAMERA_ABS_INT

const char * ArCameraCommands::SET_CAMERA_ABS_INT = "setCameraAbsInt"

static

Sends a command to the camera to set its pan/tilt/zoom, in absolute terms (as byte integers).

Deprecated:

SET_CAMERA_ABS is preferred instead

SET_CAMERA_MODE

const char * ArCameraCommands::SET_CAMERA_MODE = "setCameraMode"

static

A command that sets the mode of the camera.

Note that each mode can have its own arguments so only the mode name at the start is generic.

SET_CAMERA_PCT_INT

const char * ArCameraCommands::SET_CAMERA_PCT_INT = "setCameraPctInt"

static

Sends a command to the camera to set its pan/tilt, as specified by a percent offset (as byte integers).

Deprecated:

SET_CAMERA_PCT is preferred instead

SET_CAMERA_REL_INT

const char * ArCameraCommands::SET_CAMERA_REL_INT = "setCameraRelInt"

static

Sends a command to the camera to set its pan/tilt/zoom, relative to its current position (as byte integers).

Deprecated:

SET_CAMERA_REL is preferred instead
