Hello,
Here is the code block that you can use to capture images
from webcam by using MATLAB.
---------
obj = videoinput('winvideo', 1);
set(obj, 'FramesPerTrigger', 1);
src_obj = getselectedsource(obj);
get(src_obj)
frame = getsnapshot(obj);
---------
by reading the descriptions of the above functions, you can
easily understand and adapt the codes to your computer. only
thing is that, above functions belong to image acqusition
toolbox and you can find it at r2007b.
