Hello,
How can I resolve this
Error using matlab.webcam.internal.WebcamController/getCurrentFrame
Time out occured while trying to get a frame from the webcam.
I Already installed Image Acquisition Toolbox Support Package for OS Generic Video Interface and Computer Vision System Toolbox OpenCV Interface and MATLAB Support Package for USB Webcams
Can you please send me the solution to tettehjeremiah@ymail.com
An error is coming in this program
Undefined function 'dateshift' for input arguments of type 'double'.
Error in PeopleCounterDemo (line 17)
if dateshift(latestDate,'start','day') < datetime('today','TimeZone','local')
How do I make the code only detect and count. Without IoT
