Ok it indeed works. Im quite happy with the result.
I now have a follow up question:
If I compress the Image with say, JPEG,
1. what is the output PV of Codec1 ? If I try to pipe the JPEG
data from CODEC1 to image1, I get a segmenation fault.
2. can phoebus somehow read compressed images?
Im asking because streaming the image in raw requires ~300Mbit/s which a Raspberry Pi does not deliver (max 100Mbit)
thanks,
- W

Thanks again;
I've found the following repo from the manufacturer:
https://github.com/TheImagingSource/tiscamera
with this, its possible to get the camera recognised as a UVC device which in return should then work with the ADUVC module.
I'll try that, but I agree that it might be better to buy FLIR cameras in the future.
so big thanks to jakub for pointing out that there is the ADUVC module.

Hi William,
I think the performance requirements for a Blackfly S are too high for a simple Raspberry Pi 3?
I don't think that should be an issue. The performance specifications on their Web site are just the maximum frame rate that the cameras support. But you can control the frame rate to be the same or slower than your existing USB 2.0 camera, so the performance requirements are the same. In my experience you can even run their USB 3.0 cameras on a USB 2.0 port, and are just limited in the maximum frame rate.

are there any slow, standard cameras that could work with EPICS?

Yes, they are all GenICam compliant and can be used with either the ADAravis (Linux) or ADSpinnaker (Linux and Windows) drivers in areaDetector. I would suggest the Blackfly S models, which are available in both USB 3.0 and GigE versions.

thanks,
the camera is already here. "old stuff".
are all products from FLIR supported ?

Hi William,
There is no mention on their Web site that the camera is GenICam compliant. If it were then you could use ADAravis on Linux. It appears that their software library only works on Windows.
Do you already have this camera, and if so it there any reason it could not be replaced with another one? You could replace it for less than $400 with a much better performance FLIR camera. That is much less than the cost of writing an EPICS driver for an unsupported camera.
Mark

Hi,
just wanted to check;
has anyone already integrated the following camera into EPICS ?
"Imaging Source DMK 41AU02"
its a simple greyscale USB 2.0 Camera.
there is a C library available: https://www.theimagingsource.com/products/industrial-cameras/usb-2.0-monochrome/dmk41au02/
any thoughts about this thing?
