Getting Started withImage Acquisition Toolbox

Image Acquisition Toolbox™ provides functions and blocks for connecting cameras and lidar sensors to MATLAB^®and Simulink^®. It includes a MATLAB app that lets you interactively detect and configure hardware properties. You can then generate equivalent MATLAB code to automate your acquisition in future sessions. The toolbox enables acquisition modes such as processing in-the-loop, hardware triggering, background acquisition, and synchronizing acquisition across multiple devices.

Image Acquisition Toolbox supports all major standards and hardware vendors, including USB3 Vision, GigE Vision^®, and GenICam™ GenTL. You can connect to Velodyne LiDAR^®sensors, machine vision cameras, and frame grabbers, as well as high-end scientific and industrial devices.
