Is there a way to use hdmi input in opencv with python?


What is the best way to get OpenCV to read the HDMI input in python? for example- capture live feed from a camera connected with a video telemetry receiver, which receives video from remote camera and gives HDMI out. and get that feed into Opencv and implement a face detection algorithm.


Solution

  • All the HDMI grabbers I know are registered same way as regular web cameras. Therefore it will be available with

    cv2.VideoCapture(...)
