Can QCamera be used to control industrial cameras based on GenIcam protocol?
-
Hello, I'm new to qt. I plan to use Baumer's industrial camera, but I haven't gotten it yet, so I can't test it. Its SDK only provides an interface for obtaining images. I don't know how to package this into a video stream that Qt can recognize. So I plan to use QCamera directly, but I don’t know if it can be supported.

To use industrial cameras in Qt Application. As per my experience I suggest you should use Your camera SDK, Even i am also using industrial camera Like Baumer, Basler, HikRobot, ImagingSource, Matrix vision, Point Gray(Flir) in my Application. Even industrial Camera SDK provide almost every functionality like Connect Camera, Acquisition Control, Analog Control, etc...
And without build own QtMultimedia plugin it''s may be not possible, -
Hi and welcome to devnet,
If using Qt 5, you can write a QtMultimedia backend within your project for it. However with Qt 6, while still somehow doable, you will need your own build of QtMultimedia as the dynamique plugin part has been dropped.
