Webcam Interfacing with Raspberry Pi

This tutorial is about the clicking photos and recording videos using "Logitech Webcam C110 with Raspberry Pi 3 Model B"
Component Required:
  • Rasberry Pi 3 Model B 
  • Logitech Webcam C110 
  • Adapter Charger micro USB-b Type 5v,2Amp 
Connection Diagram:


Step 1: Create a new folder
First, we create a new folder just to store your photo and videos separately.
Open the terminal.
Command for creating new folder is "mkdir folder name"

Step 2: Check everything is up-to-date
To update your Raspberry Pi command is " sudo apt-get update ".
And to upgrade your Raspberry Pi command is " sudo apt-get upgrade".

Step 3: Check SSH and Camera enabled
To make sure SSH and Camera enabled. Follow these two-steps.
By this command, you can configure your SSH and Camera " sudo raspi-config ".
Enable SSH.
Enable Camera.

Step 4: Check connection of Camera
Make sure the camera is connected. Then run this command to make sure the OS is reading the camera. Afer entering lsusb, you will get several lines, one of which should describe your camera (e.g. says Bus 001 Device 007 ID 046d:081b Logitech, Inc.Webcam C310). If not, you are missing a driver for that camera and so get the driver or use a different camera.

" lsusb "

Step 5: Installation of Camera tools
The command for installing this tool is " sudo apt-get install guvcview ".
Run it and two windows will open and you can see the camera working and you can record and capture images. It is a good program to have. You can use it anytime.
To run this " guvcview "
You can click photos and record videos directly.

Note: Or For Logitech Webcam C110 us this command to click photos '' fswebcam -p YUYV test.jpeg ''

And to play video you can install the vlc player for Raspberry Pi by this command " sudo apt-get install vlc "

LED Brightness Control using Touch Sensor and ARM

Hey Folks, In this tutorial, we will learn, how to change  the intensity of light using touch sensor the ARM (FRDM-KL25Z). INTRODUCTION The FRDM-KL25Z is an ultra-low-cost development platform for Kinetis L Series KL1x (KL14/15) and KL2x (KL24/25) MCUs built on ARM® Cortex™-M0+ processor.  The FRDM-KL25Z has been designed by NXP in collaboration with mbed for prototyping all sorts of devices, especially those requiring the size and price point offered by Cortex-M0+ and the power of USB Host and Device. The FRDM-KL25Z is supported by a range of NXP and third-party development software. It is packaged as a development board with connectors to break out to stripboard and breadboard and includes a built-in USB FLASH programmer.               FEATURES NXP KL25Z Kinetis KL2x MCU (MKL25Z128VLK4) High-performance ARM® Cortex™-M0+ Core 48MHz, 16KB RAM, 128KB FLASH USB (Host/Device) SPI (2) I2C (2) UART (3) PWM (TPM) ...

Interfacing of Push Button With ATmega16

In this tutorial, we will learn how to interface a switch(push button) with ATMEGA16 using AVR studio. In the previous video, we learnt how to interface LEDs with ATMEGA16 using AVR studio. The push-button is a component that connects two points in a circuit when you press it. The example turns on an LED when you press the button. Here we have connected two push button to PORT C in  PC0 & PC1. And for LEDs connection please refer my previous blog. Components Required:- AVR Controller(Atmega16) LEDs Push Button Connecting Wires USBASP Programmer Dump the following code after connection  and select chip ATMEGA 16. #include<avr/io.h> #include<util/delay.h> void main()  {    DDRB=0b11111111;    int S1;    int S2;      while(1)    {     S1=PINC&0b00000001;     S2=PINC&0b00000010;     if(S1==0b00000001)     { ...

16x2 LCD Interfacing with Arduino

In this tutorial, we will learn, how to interface an LCD (liquid crystal display) with ARDUINO.  An LCD screen is an electronic display module having a flat panel display or we can say it’s an electronically modulated optical device that uses the light modulating properties of liquid crystals. We will interface a 16x2(16 columns and 2 rows) LCD. Other variations are also available like 8x1,10x2 etc. It is having a wide range of applications; they are also preferred over the 7-segment display as they are cheap, easily programmable and also have the leverage to display special characters. Now let us interface Components Required 16x2 LCD                   1No. Resistor 560ohms        1No. Potentiometer 10k      1No. Arduino UNO               1No. Few connecting wires Breadboard Follow the image below for circuit connection refe...
