Convert GrabImage to be used with OpenCV

[LucasVandroux]

Hello,

I am trying to capture color images from my acA1920-40gc and to process them using OpenCV. According to #1 this ability should be soon implemented. Am I correct? Moreover, will the procedure be somehow similar to the one describe in Getting Started with pylon and OpenCV?

Thanks a lot for your time.

Have a good day,

Hi Lucas,

the mentioned document refers to our C++ API. On our community platform ImagingHub you'll find a few examples which explains how to use pypylon along with opencv. I hope thi helps.

All best

I love your documentation! But I have two problems that I think are kinda related. First, theinstant_camera.PixelFormat = "RGB8" doesn't work with my Ace acA1920-40gc. I guess it doesn't support this PixelFormat but I have no idea where to find the precise list of the PixelFormat supported by the camera.

Then actually when I manage to save a picture, the picture is looking weird and I don't know how to change this:

However when I upload it to GitHub, it looks perfectly normal:

I managed to solve my problem in the issue #3
