Hi Bruno,

 

We plan to create a pull request to areaDetector repo, once it is stable and tested.

For now, the code is here:

Hi Bruno,

 

We are working on AD EPICS Driver for USB Video Class (UVC) devices, which includes webcams, many mini-microscopes, etc.

Libuvc depends on several packages: libusb-1.0-0 and libusb-1.0-0-dev must both be installed.

Some detectors that support the UVC standard:
