# 🤖 AI Agent Video Integration Guide
This guide provides comprehensive step-by-step instructions for AI agents and external systems to successfully integrate with the USDA Vision Camera System's video streaming functionality.
## 🎯 Overview
The USDA Vision Camera System provides a complete video streaming API that allows AI agents to:
- Browse and select videos from multiple cameras
- Stream videos with seeking capabilities
- Generate thumbnails for preview
- Access video metadata and technical information
## 🔗 API Base Configuration
### Connection Details
```bash
# Default API Base URL
API_BASE_URL="http://localhost:8000"
# For remote access, replace with actual server IP/hostname
API_BASE_URL="http://192.168.1.100:8000"
```
### Authentication
**⚠️ IMPORTANT: No authentication is currently required.**
- All endpoints are publicly accessible
- No API keys or tokens needed
- CORS is enabled for web browser integration
## 📋 Step-by-Step Integration Workflow
### Step 1: Verify System Connectivity
```bash
# Test basic connectivity
curl -f "${API_BASE_URL}/health" || echo "❌ System not accessible"
# Check system status
curl "${API_BASE_URL}/system/status"
```
**Expected Response:**
```json
{
"status": "healthy",
"timestamp": "2025-08-05T10:30:00Z"
}
```
### Step 2: List Available Videos
```bash
# Get all videos with metadata
curl "${API_BASE_URL}/videos/?include_metadata=true&limit=50"
# Filter by specific camera
curl "${API_BASE_URL}/videos/?camera_name=camera1&include_metadata=true"
# Filter by date range
curl "${API_BASE_URL}/videos/?start_date=2025-08-04T00:00:00&end_date=2025-08-05T23:59:59"
```
**Response Structure:**
```json
{
"videos": [
{
"file_id": "camera1_auto_blower_separator_20250804_143022.mp4",
"camera_name": "camera1",
"filename": "camera1_auto_blower_separator_20250804_143022.mp4",
"file_size_bytes": 31457280,
"format": "mp4",
"status": "completed",
"created_at": "2025-08-04T14:30:22",
"start_time": "2025-08-04T14:30:22",
"end_time": "2025-08-04T14:32:22",
"machine_trigger": "blower_separator",
"is_streamable": true,

"codec": "mp4v",
"bitrate": 5000000,
"aspect_ratio": 1.777
}
}
],
"total_count": 1
}
```
### Step 3: Select and Validate Video
```bash
# Get detailed video information
FILE_ID="camera1_auto_blower_separator_20250804_143022.mp4"
curl "${API_BASE_URL}/videos/${FILE_ID}"
# Validate video is playable
curl -X POST "${API_BASE_URL}/videos/${FILE_ID}/validate"
# Get streaming technical details
curl "${API_BASE_URL}/videos/${FILE_ID}/info"
```
### Step 4: Generate Video Thumbnail
```bash
# Generate thumbnail at 5 seconds, 320x240 resolution
curl "${API_BASE_URL}/videos/${FILE_ID}/thumbnail?timestamp=5.0&width=320&height=240" \
--output "thumbnail_${FILE_ID}.jpg"
# Generate multiple thumbnails for preview
for timestamp in 1 30 60 90; do
curl "${API_BASE_URL}/videos/${FILE_ID}/thumbnail?timestamp=${timestamp}&width=160&height=120" \
--output "preview_${timestamp}s.jpg"
done
```
### Step 5: Stream Video Content
```bash
# Stream entire video
curl "${API_BASE_URL}/videos/${FILE_ID}/stream" --output "video.mp4"
# Stream specific byte range (for seeking)
curl -H "Range: bytes=0-1048575" \
"${API_BASE_URL}/videos/${FILE_ID}/stream" \
--output "video_chunk.mp4"
# Test range request support
curl -I -H "Range: bytes=0-1023" \
"${API_BASE_URL}/videos/${FILE_ID}/stream"
```
## 🔧 Programming Language Examples
### Python Integration
```python
import requests
import json
from typing import List, Dict, Optional
class USDAVideoClient:
def __init__(self, base_url: str = "http://localhost:8000"):
self.base_url = base_url.rstrip('/')

"""Validate that video is accessible and playable."""
response = self.session.post(f"{self.base_url}/videos/{file_id}/validate")
response.raise_for_status()
return response.json().get('is_valid', False)
# Usage example
client = USDAVideoClient("http://192.168.1.100:8000")
# List videos from camera1
videos = client.list_videos(camera_name="camera1")
print(f"Found {videos['total_count']} videos")
# Select first video
if videos['videos']:
video = videos['videos'][0]
file_id = video['file_id']
# Validate video
if client.validate_video(file_id):
print(f"✅ Video {file_id} is valid")
# Get thumbnail
thumbnail = client.get_thumbnail(file_id, timestamp=5.0)
with open(f"thumbnail_{file_id}.jpg", "wb") as f:
f.write(thumbnail)
# Stream first 1MB
chunk = client.stream_video_range(file_id, 0, 1048575)
print(f"Downloaded {len(chunk)} bytes")
```
### JavaScript/Node.js Integration
```javascript
class USDAVideoClient {
constructor(baseUrl = 'http://localhost:8000') {
this.baseUrl = baseUrl.replace(/\/$/, '');
}
async listVideos(options = {}) {
const params = new URLSearchParams({
include_metadata: options.includeMetadata || true,
limit: options.limit || 50
});
if (options.cameraName) {
params.append('camera_name', options.cameraName);
}
const response = await fetch(`${this.baseUrl}/videos/?${params}`);
if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`HTTP ${response.status}`);
return response.json();
}

return response.json();
}
async getThumbnail(fileId, options = {}) {
const params = new URLSearchParams({
timestamp: options.timestamp || 1.0,
width: options.width || 320,
height: options.height || 240
});
const response = await fetch(
`${this.baseUrl}/videos/${fileId}/thumbnail?${params}`
);
if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`HTTP ${response.status}`);
return response.blob();
}
async validateVideo(fileId) {
const response = await fetch(
`${this.baseUrl}/videos/${fileId}/validate`,
{ method: 'POST' }
);
if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`HTTP ${response.status}`);
const result = await response.json();
return result.is_valid;
}
getStreamUrl(fileId) {
return `${this.baseUrl}/videos/${fileId}/stream`;
}
}
// Usage example
const client = new USDAVideoClient('http://192.168.1.100:8000');
async function integrateWithVideos() {
try {
// List videos
const videos = await client.listVideos({ cameraName: 'camera1' });
console.log(`Found ${videos.total_count} videos`);
if (videos.videos.length > 0) {
const video = videos.videos[0];
const fileId = video.file_id;
// Validate video
const isValid = await client.validateVideo(fileId);
if (isValid) {
console.log(`✅ Video ${fileId} is valid`);
// Get thumbnail
const thumbnail = await client.getThumbnail(fileId, {
timestamp: 5.0,
width: 320,
height: 240
});
// Create video element for playback
const videoElement = document.createElement('video');
videoElement.controls = true;
videoElement.src = client.getStreamUrl(fileId);
document.body.appendChild(videoElement);
}
}
} catch (error) {
console.error('Integration error:', error);
}
}
```
## 🚨 Error Handling
### Common HTTP Status Codes
```bash
# Success responses
200 # OK - Request successful
206 # Partial Content - Range request successful
# Client error responses
400 # Bad Request - Invalid parameters
404 # Not Found - Video file doesn't exist
416 # Range Not Satisfiable - Invalid range request
# Server error responses
500 # Internal Server Error - Failed to process video
503 # Service Unavailable - Video module not available
```
### Error Response Format
```json
{
"detail": "Video camera1_recording_20250804_143022.avi not found"
}
```
### Robust Error Handling Example
```python
def safe_video_operation(client, file_id):
try:
# Validate video first
if not client.validate_video(file_id):
return {"error": "Video is not valid or accessible"}
# Get video info
video_info = client.get_video_info(file_id)
# Check if streamable
if not video_info.get('is_streamable', False):
return {"error": "Video is not streamable"}
return {"success": True, "video_info": video_info}
except requests.exceptions.HTTPError as e:
if e.response.status_code == 404:
return {"error": "Video not found"}
elif e.response.status_code == 416:
return {"error": "Invalid range request"}
else:
return {"error": f"HTTP error: {e.response.status_code}"}
except requests.exceptions.ConnectionError:
return {"error": "Cannot connect to video server"}
except Exception as e:
return {"error": f"Unexpected error: {str(e)}"}

# API Changes Summary: Camera Settings and Video Format Updates
## Overview
This document tracks major API changes including camera settings enhancements and the MP4 video format update.
## 🎥 Latest Update: MP4 Video Format (v2.1)
**Date**: August 2025
**Major Changes**:
- **Video Format**: Changed from AVI/XVID to MP4/MPEG-4 format
- **File Extensions**: New recordings use `.mp4` instead of `.avi`
- **File Size**: ~40% reduction in file sizes
- **Streaming**: Better web browser compatibility
**New Configuration Fields**:
```json
{
"video_format": "mp4", // File format: "mp4" or "avi"
"video_codec": "mp4v", // Video codec: "mp4v", "XVID", "MJPG"
"video_quality": 95 // Quality: 0-100 (higher = better)
}
```
**Frontend Impact**:
- ✅ Better streaming performance and browser support
- ✅ Smaller file sizes for faster transfers
- ✅ Universal HTML5 video player compatibility
- ✅ Backward compatible with existing AVI files
**Documentation**: See [MP4 Format Update Guide](MP4_FORMAT_UPDATE.md)
---
## Previous Changes: Camera Settings and Filename Handling
Enhanced the `POST /cameras/{camera_name}/start-recording` API endpoint to accept optional camera settings (shutter speed/exposure, gain, and fps) and ensure all filenames have datetime prefixes.
## Changes Made
### 1. API Models (`usda_vision_system/api/models.py`)
- **Enhanced `StartRecordingRequest`** to include optional parameters:
- `exposure_ms: Optional[float]` - Exposure time in milliseconds
- `gain: Optional[float]` - Camera gain value
- `fps: Optional[float]` - Target frames per second
### 2. Camera Recorder (`usda_vision_system/camera/recorder.py`)
- **Added `update_camera_settings()` method** to dynamically update camera settings:
- Updates exposure time using `mvsdk.CameraSetExposureTime()`
- Updates gain using `mvsdk.CameraSetAnalogGain()`
- Updates target FPS in camera configuration
- Logs all setting changes
- Returns boolean indicating success/failure
### 3. Camera Manager (`usda_vision_system/camera/manager.py`)
- **Enhanced `manual_start_recording()` method** to accept new parameters:
- Added optional `exposure_ms`, `gain`, and `fps` parameters
- Calls `update_camera_settings()` if any settings are provided
- **Automatic datetime prefix**: Always prepends timestamp to filename
- If custom filename provided: `{timestamp}_{custom_filename}`
- If no filename provided: `{camera_name}_manual_{timestamp}.avi`
### 4. API Server (`usda_vision_system/api/server.py`)
- **Updated start-recording endpoint** to:
- Pass new camera settings to camera manager
- Handle filename response with datetime prefix
- Maintain backward compatibility with existing requests
### 5. API Tests (`api-tests.http`)
- **Added comprehensive test examples**:
- Basic recording (existing functionality)
- Recording with camera settings
- Recording with settings only (no filename)
- Different parameter combinations
## Usage Examples
### Basic Recording (unchanged)
```http
POST http://localhost:8000/cameras/camera1/start-recording
Content-Type: application/json
{
"camera_name": "camera1",
"filename": "test.avi"
}
```
**Result**: File saved as `20241223_143022_test.avi`
### Recording with Camera Settings
```http
POST http://localhost:8000/cameras/camera1/start-recording
Content-Type: application/json
{
"camera_name": "camera1",
"filename": "high_quality.avi",
"exposure_ms": 2.0,
"gain": 4.0,
"fps": 5.0
}
```
**Result**:
- Camera settings updated before recording
- File saved as `20241223_143022_high_quality.avi`
### Maximum FPS Recording
```http
POST http://localhost:8000/cameras/camera1/start-recording
Content-Type: application/json
{
"camera_name": "camera1",
"filename": "max_speed.avi",
"exposure_ms": 0.1,
"gain": 1.0,
"fps": 0
}
```
**Result**:
- Camera captures at maximum possible speed (no delay between frames)
- Video file saved with 30 FPS metadata for proper playback
- Actual capture rate depends on camera hardware and exposure settings
### Settings Only (no filename)
```http
POST http://localhost:8000/cameras/camera1/start-recording
Content-Type: application/json
{
"camera_name": "camera1",
"exposure_ms": 1.5,
"gain": 3.0,
"fps": 7.0
}
```
**Result**:
- Camera settings updated
- File saved as `camera1_manual_20241223_143022.avi`
## Key Features
### 1. **Backward Compatibility**
- All existing API calls continue to work unchanged
- New parameters are optional
- Default behavior preserved when no settings provided
### 2. **Automatic Datetime Prefix**
- **ALL filenames now have datetime prefix** regardless of what's sent
- Format: `YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_` (Atlanta timezone)
- Ensures unique filenames and chronological ordering
### 3. **Dynamic Camera Settings**
- Settings can be changed per recording without restarting system
- Based on proven implementation from `old tests/camera_video_recorder.py`
- Proper error handling and logging
### 4. **Maximum FPS Capture**
- **`fps: 0`** = Capture at maximum possible speed (no delay between frames)
- **`fps > 0`** = Capture at specified frame rate with controlled timing
- **`fps` omitted** = Uses camera config default (usually 3.0 fps)
- Video files saved with 30 FPS metadata when fps=0 for proper playback
### 5. **Parameter Validation**
- Uses Pydantic models for automatic validation
- Optional parameters with proper type checking
- Descriptive field documentation
## Testing
Run the test script to verify functionality:
```bash
# Start the system first
python main.py
# In another terminal, run tests
python test_api_changes.py
```
The test script verifies:
- Basic recording functionality
- Camera settings application
- Filename datetime prefix handling
- API response accuracy
## Implementation Notes
### Camera Settings Mapping
- **Exposure**: Converted from milliseconds to microseconds for SDK
- **Gain**: Converted to camera units (multiplied by 100)
- **FPS**: Stored in camera config, used by recording loop
### Error Handling
- Settings update failures are logged but don't prevent recording
- Invalid camera names return appropriate HTTP errors
- Camera initialization failures are handled gracefully
### Filename Generation
- Uses `format_filename_timestamp()` from timezone utilities
- Ensures Atlanta timezone consistency
- Handles both custom and auto-generated filenames
## Similar to Old Implementation
The camera settings functionality mirrors the proven approach in `old tests/camera_video_recorder.py`:
- Same parameter names and ranges
- Same SDK function calls
- Same conversion factors
- Proven to work with the camera hardware

# 🎥 MP4 Video Format Update - Frontend Integration Guide
## Overview
The USDA Vision Camera System has been updated to record videos in **MP4 format** instead of AVI format for better streaming compatibility and smaller file sizes.
## 🔄 What Changed
### Video Format
- **Before**: AVI files with XVID codec (`.avi` extension)
- **After**: MP4 files with MPEG-4 codec (`.mp4` extension)
### File Extensions
- All new video recordings now use `.mp4` extension
- Existing `.avi` files remain accessible and functional
- File size reduction: ~40% smaller than equivalent AVI files
### API Response Updates
New fields added to camera configuration responses:
```json
{
"video_format": "mp4", // File format: "mp4" or "avi"
"video_codec": "mp4v", // Video codec: "mp4v", "XVID", "MJPG"
"video_quality": 95 // Quality: 0-100 (higher = better)
}
```
## 🌐 Frontend Impact
### 1. Video Player Compatibility
**✅ Better Browser Support**
- MP4 format has native support in all modern browsers
- No need for additional codecs or plugins
- Better mobile device compatibility (iOS/Android)
### 2. File Handling Updates
**File Extension Handling**
```javascript
// Update file extension checks
const isVideoFile = (filename) => {
return filename.endsWith('.mp4') || filename.endsWith('.avi');
};
// Video MIME type detection
const getVideoMimeType = (filename) => {
if (filename.endsWith('.mp4')) return 'video/mp4';
if (filename.endsWith('.avi')) return 'video/x-msvideo';
return 'video/mp4'; // default
};
```
### 3. Video Streaming
**Improved Streaming Performance**
```javascript
// MP4 files can be streamed directly without conversion
const videoUrl = `/api/videos/${videoId}/stream`;
// For HTML5 video element
<video controls>
<source src={videoUrl} type="video/mp4" />
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
```
### 4. File Size Display
**Updated Size Expectations**
- MP4 files are ~40% smaller than equivalent AVI files
- Update any file size warnings or storage calculations
- Better compression means faster downloads and uploads
## 📡 API Changes
### Camera Configuration Endpoint
**GET** `/cameras/{camera_name}/config`
**New Response Fields:**
```json
{

errors.video_format = 'Must be mp4 or avi';
}
if (!['mp4v', 'XVID', 'MJPG'].includes(settings.video_codec)) {
errors.video_codec = 'Invalid codec';
}
if (settings.video_quality < 50 || settings.video_quality > 100) {
errors.video_quality = 'Quality must be between 50-100';
}
return errors;
};
```

return (
<video
controls
width="100%"
preload="metadata"
style={{ maxWidth: '800px' }}
>
<source
src={`${API_BASE_URL}/videos/${fileId}/stream`}
type="video/mp4"
/>
Your browser does not support video playback.
</video>
);
}
```
### Advanced Player with Thumbnail

return (
<video controls width="100%" poster={thumbnail}>
<source
src={`${API_BASE_URL}/videos/${fileId}/stream`}
type="video/mp4"
/>
</video>
);
}
```
### Video List Component
```jsx
function VideoList({ cameraName }) {
const [videos, setVideos] = useState([]);
useEffect(() => {
const params = new URLSearchParams();
if (cameraName) params.append('camera_name', cameraName);
params.append('include_metadata', 'true');
fetch(`${API_BASE_URL}/videos/?${params}`)
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => setVideos(data.videos));
}, [cameraName]);
return (
<div className="grid grid-cols-1 md:grid-cols-2 lg:grid-cols-3 gap-4">
{videos.map(video => (
<VideoCard key={video.file_id} video={video} />
))}
</div>
);
}
```
## 🔧 Configuration
The video module is automatically initialized when the API server starts. Configuration options:
```python
# In your API server initialization
video_module = create_video_module(
config=config,
storage_manager=storage_manager,
enable_caching=True, # Enable streaming cache
enable_conversion=True # Enable format conversion
)
```
### Configuration Parameters
- **`enable_caching`**: Enable/disable intelligent byte-range caching (default: True)
- **`cache_size_mb`**: Maximum cache size in MB (default: 100)
- **`cache_max_age_minutes`**: Cache entry expiration time (default: 30)
- **`enable_conversion`**: Enable/disable automatic AVI to MP4 conversion (default: True)
- **`conversion_quality`**: Video conversion quality: "low", "medium", "high" (default: "medium")
### System Requirements
- **OpenCV**: Required for thumbnail generation and metadata extraction
- **FFmpeg**: Optional, for video format conversion (graceful fallback if not available)
- **Storage**: Sufficient disk space for video files and cache
- **Memory**: Recommended 2GB+ RAM for caching and video processing
## 🔐 Authentication & Security
### Current Security Model
**⚠️ IMPORTANT: No authentication is currently implemented.**
- **Open Access**: All video streaming endpoints are publicly accessible
- **CORS Policy**: Currently set to allow all origins (`allow_origins=["*"]`)
- **Network Security**: Designed for internal network use only
- **No API Keys**: No authentication tokens or API keys required
- **No Rate Limiting**: No request rate limiting currently implemented
### Security Considerations for Production
#### For Internal Network Deployment
```bash
# Current configuration is suitable for:
# - Internal corporate networks
# - Isolated network segments
# - Development and testing environments
```
#### For External Access (Recommendations)
If you need to expose the video streaming API externally, consider implementing:
1. **Authentication Layer**
```python
# Example: Add JWT authentication
from fastapi import Depends, HTTPException
from fastapi.security import HTTPBearer
security = HTTPBearer()
async def verify_token(token: str = Depends(security)):
# Implement token verification logic
pass
```
2. **CORS Configuration**
```python
# Restrict CORS to specific domains
app.add_middleware(
CORSMiddleware,
allow_origins=["https://yourdomain.com"],
allow_credentials=True,
allow_methods=["GET", "POST"],
allow_headers=["*"]
)
```
3. **Rate Limiting**
```python
# Example: Add rate limiting
from slowapi import Limiter
limiter = Limiter(key_func=get_remote_address)
@app.get("/videos/")
@limiter.limit("10/minute")
async def list_videos():
pass
```
4. **Network Security**
- Use HTTPS/TLS for encrypted communication
- Implement firewall rules to restrict access
- Consider VPN access for remote users
- Use reverse proxy (nginx) for additional security
### Access Control Summary
```
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Current Access Model │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Authentication: ❌ None │
│ Authorization: ❌ None │
│ CORS: ✅ Enabled (all origins) │
│ Rate Limiting: ❌ None │
│ HTTPS: ⚠️ Depends on deployment │
│ Network Security: ⚠️ Firewall/VPN recommended │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```
## 📊 Performance
- **Caching**: Intelligent byte-range caching reduces disk I/O
- **Adaptive Chunking**: Optimal chunk sizes based on file size
- **Range Requests**: Only download needed portions
- **Format Conversion**: Automatic conversion to web-compatible formats
## 🛠️ Service Management
### Restart Service
```bash
sudo systemctl restart usda-vision-camera
```
### Check Status
```bash
# Check video module status
curl http://localhost:8000/system/video-module
# Check available videos
curl http://localhost:8000/videos/
```
### Logs
```bash
sudo journalctl -u usda-vision-camera -f
```
## 🧪 Testing
Run the video module tests:
```bash
cd /home/alireza/USDA-vision-cameras
PYTHONPATH=/home/alireza/USDA-vision-cameras python tests/test_video_module.py
```
## 🔍 Troubleshooting
### Video Not Playing
1. **Check if file exists**: `GET /videos/{file_id}`
```bash
curl http://localhost:8000/videos/camera1_recording_20250804_143022.avi
```
2. **Verify streaming info**: `GET /videos/{file_id}/info`
```bash
curl http://localhost:8000/videos/camera1_recording_20250804_143022.avi/info
```
3. **Test direct stream**: `GET /videos/{file_id}/stream`
```bash
curl -I http://localhost:8000/videos/camera1_recording_20250804_143022.avi/stream
```
4. **Validate video file**: `POST /videos/{file_id}/validate`
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/videos/camera1_recording_20250804_143022.avi/validate
```
### Performance Issues
1. **Check cache status**: Clean up cache if needed
```bash
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/admin/videos/cache/cleanup?max_size_mb=100"
```
2. **Monitor system resources**: Check CPU, memory, and disk usage
3. **Adjust cache size**: Modify configuration parameters
4. **Invalidate specific cache**: For updated files
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/videos/{file_id}/cache/invalidate
```
### Format Issues
- **AVI files**: Automatically converted to MP4 for web compatibility
- **Conversion requires FFmpeg**: Optional dependency with graceful fallback
- **Supported formats**: AVI (with conversion), MP4 (native), WebM (native)
### Common HTTP Status Codes
- **200**: Success - Video streamed successfully
- **206**: Partial Content - Range request successful
- **404**: Not Found - Video file doesn't exist or isn't streamable

{
"name": "camera1",
"machine_topic": "blower_separator",
"storage_path": "/storage/camera1",
"exposure_ms": 1.0,
"gain": 3.5,
"target_fps": 0,
"enabled": true,
"auto_start_recording_enabled": true,
"auto_recording_max_retries": 3,
"auto_recording_retry_delay_seconds": 2,
"sharpness": 100,
"contrast": 100,
"saturation": 100,
"gamma": 100,
"noise_filter_enabled": false,
"denoise_3d_enabled": false,
"auto_white_balance": false,
"color_temperature_preset": 6500,
"anti_flicker_enabled": true,
"light_frequency": 1,
"bit_depth": 8,

## Camera Preview Enhancement
**Important Update**: The camera preview/streaming functionality has been enhanced to apply all default configuration settings from config.json, ensuring that preview images match the quality and appearance of recorded videos.
### What This Means for Camera1
When you view the camera preview, you'll now see:
- **Manual exposure** (1.0ms) and **high gain** (3.5x) applied
- **50Hz anti-flicker** filtering active
- **Manual white balance** with balanced RGB gains (1.0, 1.0, 1.0)
- **Standard image processing** (sharpness: 100, contrast: 100, gamma: 100, saturation: 100)
- **D65 color temperature** (6500K) applied
This ensures the preview accurately represents what will be recorded.
## Notes
1. **Machine Topic Correction**: The machine topic has been corrected from "vibratory_conveyor" to "blower_separator" to match the camera's actual monitoring purpose.
2. **Manual White Balance**: The camera is configured for manual white balance with D65 color temperature, which is appropriate for daylight conditions.
3. **RGB Gain Support**: The current configuration system needs to be extended to support individual RGB gain values for manual white balance fine-tuning.
4. **Anti-Flicker**: Enabled to reduce artificial lighting interference, set to 60Hz to match North American power frequency.
5. **LUT Mode**: The camera uses dynamically generated LUT with gamma=1.00 and contrast=100, which provides linear response.
## Future Enhancements
To fully support all settings shown in the screenshots, the following parameters should be added to the configuration system:
- `wb_red_gain`: Red channel gain for manual white balance (0.0-3.99)
- `wb_green_gain`: Green channel gain for manual white balance (0.0-3.99)
- `wb_blue_gain`: Blue channel gain for manual white balance (0.0-3.99)
- `lut_mode`: LUT generation mode (0=dynamic, 1=preset, 2=custom)
- `lut_preset`: Preset LUT selection when using preset mode

{
"name": "camera2",
"machine_topic": "vibratory_conveyor",
"storage_path": "/storage/camera2",
"exposure_ms": 0.5,
"gain": 0.3,
"target_fps": 0,
"enabled": true,
"auto_start_recording_enabled": true,
"auto_recording_max_retries": 3,
"auto_recording_retry_delay_seconds": 2,
"sharpness": 0,
"contrast": 100,
"saturation": 100,
"gamma": 100,
"noise_filter_enabled": false,
"denoise_3d_enabled": false,
"auto_white_balance": false,
"color_temperature_preset": 6500,
"wb_red_gain": 1.01,
"wb_green_gain": 1.0,
"wb_blue_gain": 0.87,
"anti_flicker_enabled": false,
"light_frequency": 1,
"bit_depth": 8,
"hdr_enabled": false,
"hdr_gain_mode": 0
}
```
## Key Differences from Camera1 (Blower Camera)
1. **RGB Gain Tuning**: Camera2 has custom RGB gains (R:1.01, G:1.00, B:0.87) vs Camera1's balanced gains (all 1.0)
2. **Sharpness**: Camera2 has sharpness disabled (0) vs Camera1's normal sharpness (100)
3. **Exposure/Gain**: Camera2 uses lower exposure (0.5ms) and gain (0.3x) vs Camera1's higher values (1.0ms, 3.5x)
4. **Anti-Flicker**: Camera2 has anti-flicker disabled vs Camera1's enabled anti-flicker
## Notes
1. **Custom White Balance**: Camera2 uses manual white balance with custom RGB gains, suggesting specific lighting conditions or color correction requirements for the conveyor monitoring.
2. **No Sharpening**: Sharpness is set to 0, indicating the raw image quality is preferred without artificial enhancement.
3. **Minimal Noise Reduction**: Both 2D and 3D denoising are disabled, prioritizing image authenticity over noise reduction.
4. **Dead Pixel Correction**: Enabled to handle any defective pixels on the sensor.
5. **Lower Sensitivity**: The lower exposure and gain settings suggest better lighting conditions or different monitoring requirements compared to the blower camera.
## Camera Preview Enhancement
**Important Update**: The camera preview/streaming functionality has been enhanced to apply all default configuration settings from config.json, ensuring that preview images match the quality and appearance of recorded videos.
### What Changed
Previously, camera preview only applied basic settings (exposure, gain, trigger mode). Now, the preview applies the complete configuration including:
- **Image Quality**: Sharpness, contrast, gamma, saturation
- **Color Processing**: White balance mode, color temperature, RGB gains
- **Advanced Settings**: Anti-flicker, light frequency, HDR settings
- **Noise Reduction**: Filter and 3D denoising settings (where supported)
### Benefits
1. **WYSIWYG Preview**: What you see in the preview is exactly what gets recorded
2. **Accurate Color Representation**: Manual white balance and RGB gains are applied to preview
3. **Consistent Image Quality**: Sharpness, contrast, and gamma settings match recording
4. **Proper Exposure**: Anti-flicker and lighting frequency settings are applied
### Technical Implementation
The `CameraStreamer` class now includes the same comprehensive configuration methods as `CameraRecorder`:
- `_configure_image_quality()`: Applies sharpness, contrast, gamma, saturation
- `_configure_color_settings()`: Applies white balance mode, color temperature, RGB gains
- `_configure_advanced_settings()`: Applies anti-flicker, light frequency, HDR
- `_configure_noise_reduction()`: Applies noise filter settings
These methods are called during camera initialization for streaming, ensuring all config.json settings are applied.
## Future Enhancements
Additional parameters that could be added to support all graphic processing features:
- `rotation_angle`: Image rotation (0, 90, 180, 270 degrees)
- `lens_distortion_correction`: Enable/disable lens distortion correction
- `dead_pixel_correction`: Enable/disable dead pixel correction
- `flat_fielding_correction`: Enable/disable flat fielding correction
- `mirror_horizontal`: Horizontal mirroring
- `mirror_vertical`: Vertical mirroring

The camera preview/streaming functionality has been significantly enhanced to apply all default configuration settings from `config.json`, ensuring that preview images accurately represent what will be recorded.
## Problem Solved
Previously, camera preview only applied basic settings (exposure, gain, trigger mode, frame rate), while recording applied the full configuration. This meant:
- Preview images looked different from recorded videos
- Color balance, sharpness, and other image quality settings were not visible in preview
- Users couldn't accurately assess the final recording quality from the preview
## Solution Implemented
The `CameraStreamer` class has been enhanced with comprehensive configuration methods that mirror those in `CameraRecorder`:
### New Configuration Methods Added
1. **`_configure_image_quality()`**
- Applies sharpness settings (0-200)
- Applies contrast settings (0-200)
- Applies gamma correction (0-300)
- Applies saturation for color cameras (0-200)
2. **`_configure_color_settings()`**
- Sets white balance mode (auto/manual)
- Applies color temperature presets
- Sets manual RGB gains for precise color tuning
3. **`_configure_advanced_settings()`**
- Enables/disables anti-flicker filtering
- Sets light frequency (50Hz/60Hz)
- Configures HDR settings when available
4. **`_configure_noise_reduction()`**
- Configures noise filter settings
- Configures 3D denoising settings
### Enhanced Main Configuration Method
The `_configure_streaming_settings()` method now calls all configuration methods:
```python
def _configure_streaming_settings(self):
"""Configure camera settings from config.json for streaming"""
try:
# Basic settings (existing)
mvsdk.CameraSetTriggerMode(self.hCamera, 0)
mvsdk.CameraSetAeState(self.hCamera, 0)
exposure_us = int(self.camera_config.exposure_ms * 1000)
mvsdk.CameraSetExposureTime(self.hCamera, exposure_us)
gain_value = int(self.camera_config.gain * 100)
mvsdk.CameraSetAnalogGain(self.hCamera, gain_value)
# Comprehensive configuration (new)
self._configure_image_quality()
self._configure_noise_reduction()
if not self.monoCamera:
self._configure_color_settings()
self._configure_advanced_settings()
except Exception as e:
self.logger.warning(f"Could not configure some streaming settings: {e}")
```
## Benefits
### 1. WYSIWYG Preview
- **What You See Is What You Get**: Preview now accurately represents final recording quality
- **Real-time Assessment**: Users can evaluate recording quality before starting actual recording
- **Consistent Experience**: No surprises when comparing preview to recorded footage
### 2. Accurate Color Representation
- **Manual White Balance**: RGB gains are applied to preview for accurate color reproduction
- **Color Temperature**: D65 or other presets are applied consistently
- **Saturation**: Color intensity matches recording settings
### 3. Proper Image Quality
- **Sharpness**: Edge enhancement settings are visible in preview
- **Contrast**: Dynamic range adjustments are applied
- **Gamma**: Brightness curve corrections are active
### 4. Environmental Adaptation
- **Anti-Flicker**: Artificial lighting interference is filtered in preview
- **Light Frequency**: 50Hz/60Hz settings match local power grid
- **HDR**: High dynamic range processing when enabled
## Camera-Specific Impact
### Camera1 (Blower Separator)
Preview now shows:
- Manual exposure (1.0ms) and high gain (3.5x)
- 50Hz anti-flicker filtering
- Manual white balance with balanced RGB gains (1.0, 1.0, 1.0)
- Standard image processing (sharpness: 100, contrast: 100, gamma: 100, saturation: 100)
- D65 color temperature (6500K)
### Camera2 (Conveyor/Cracker)
Preview now shows:
- Manual exposure (0.5ms) and lower gain (0.3x)
- Custom RGB color tuning (R:1.01, G:1.00, B:0.87)
- No image sharpening (sharpness: 0)
- Enhanced saturation (100) and proper gamma (100)
- D65 color temperature with manual white balance
## Technical Implementation Details
### Error Handling
- All configuration methods include try-catch blocks
- Warnings are logged for unsupported features
- Graceful degradation when SDK functions are unavailable
- Streaming continues even if some settings fail to apply
### SDK Compatibility
- Checks for function availability before calling
- Handles different SDK versions gracefully
- Logs informational messages for unavailable features
### Performance Considerations
- Configuration is applied once during camera initialization
- No performance impact on streaming frame rate
- Separate camera instance for streaming (doesn't interfere with recording)
## Usage
No changes required for users - the enhancement is automatic:
1. **Start Preview**: Use existing preview endpoints
2. **View Stream**: Camera automatically applies all config.json settings
3. **Compare**: Preview now matches recording quality exactly
### API Endpoints (unchanged)
- `GET /cameras/{camera_name}/stream` - Get live MJPEG stream
- `POST /cameras/{camera_name}/start-stream` - Start streaming
- `POST /cameras/{camera_name}/stop-stream` - Stop streaming
## Future Enhancements
Additional settings that could be added to further improve preview accuracy:
1. **Geometric Corrections**
- Lens distortion correction
- Dead pixel correction
- Flat fielding correction
2. **Image Transformations**
- Rotation (90°, 180°, 270°)
- Horizontal/vertical mirroring
3. **Advanced Processing**
- Custom LUT (Look-Up Table) support
- Advanced noise reduction algorithms
- Real-time image enhancement filters
## Conclusion
This enhancement significantly improves the user experience by providing accurate, real-time preview of camera output with all configuration settings applied. Users can now confidently assess recording quality, adjust settings, and ensure optimal camera performance before starting critical recordings.

}
```
## 🎨 React App UI Requirements
### 1. Camera Status Display Updates
**Add to Camera Cards/Components:**
- Auto-recording enabled/disabled indicator
- Auto-recording active status (when machine is ON and auto-recording)
- Failure count display (if > 0)
- Last auto-recording error (if any)
- Visual distinction between manual and auto-recording
**Example UI Elements:**
```jsx
// Auto-recording status badge
{camera.auto_recording_enabled && (
<Badge variant={camera.auto_recording_active ? "success" : "secondary"}>
Auto-Recording {camera.auto_recording_active ? "Active" : "Enabled"}
</Badge>
)}
// Failure indicator
{camera.auto_recording_failure_count > 0 && (
<Alert variant="warning">
Auto-recording failures: {camera.auto_recording_failure_count}
</Alert>
)}
```
### 2. Auto-Recording Controls
**Add Toggle Controls:**
- Enable/Disable auto-recording per camera
- Global auto-recording status display
- Retry queue monitoring
**Example Control Component:**
```jsx
const AutoRecordingToggle = ({ camera, onToggle }) => {
const handleToggle = async () => {
const endpoint = camera.auto_recording_enabled ? 'disable' : 'enable';
await fetch(`/cameras/${camera.name}/auto-recording/${endpoint}`, {
method: 'POST'
});
onToggle();
};
return (
<Switch
checked={camera.auto_recording_enabled}
onChange={handleToggle}
label="Auto-Recording"
/>
);
};
```
### 3. Machine State Integration
**Display Machine Status:**
- Show which machine each camera monitors
- Display current machine state (ON/OFF)
- Show correlation between machine state and recording status
**Camera-Machine Mapping:**
- Camera 1 → Vibratory Conveyor (conveyor/cracker cam)
- Camera 2 → Blower Separator (blower separator)
### 4. Auto-Recording Dashboard
**Create New Dashboard Section:**
- Overall auto-recording system status
- List of cameras with auto-recording enabled
- Active retry queue display
- Recent auto-recording events/logs
## 🔧 Implementation Steps for React App
### Step 1: Update TypeScript Interfaces
```typescript
// Update existing interfaces in your types file
// Add new interfaces for auto-recording responses
```
### Step 2: Update API Service Functions
```typescript
// Add new API calls
export const enableAutoRecording = (cameraName: string) =>
fetch(`/cameras/${cameraName}/auto-recording/enable`, { method: 'POST' });
export const disableAutoRecording = (cameraName: string) =>
fetch(`/cameras/${cameraName}/auto-recording/disable`, { method: 'POST' });
export const getAutoRecordingStatus = () =>
fetch('/auto-recording/status').then(res => res.json());
```
### Step 3: Update Camera Components
- Add auto-recording status indicators
- Add enable/disable controls
- Update recording status display to distinguish auto vs manual
### Step 4: Create Auto-Recording Management Panel
- System-wide auto-recording status
- Per-camera auto-recording controls
- Retry queue monitoring
- Error reporting and alerts
### Step 5: Update State Management
```typescript
// Add auto-recording state to your store/context
interface AppState {
cameras: CameraStatusResponse[];
autoRecordingStatus: AutoRecordingStatusResponse;
// ... existing state
}
```
## 🎯 Key User Experience Considerations
### Visual Indicators
1. **Recording Status Hierarchy:**
- Manual Recording (highest priority - red/prominent)
- Auto-Recording Active (green/secondary)
- Auto-Recording Enabled but Inactive (blue/subtle)
- Auto-Recording Disabled (gray/muted)
2. **Machine State Correlation:**
- Show machine ON/OFF status next to camera
- Indicate when auto-recording should be active
- Alert if machine is ON but auto-recording failed
3. **Error Handling:**
- Clear error messages for auto-recording failures
- Retry count display
- Last attempt timestamp
- Quick retry/reset options
### User Controls
1. **Quick Actions:**
- Toggle auto-recording per camera
- Force retry failed auto-recording
- Override auto-recording (manual control)
2. **Configuration:**
- Adjust retry settings
- Change machine-camera mappings
- Set recording parameters for auto-recording
## 🚨 Important Notes
### Behavior Rules
1. **Manual Override:** Manual recording always takes precedence over auto-recording
2. **Non-Blocking:** Auto-recording status checks don't interfere with camera operation
3. **Machine Correlation:** Auto-recording only activates when the associated machine turns ON
4. **Failure Handling:** Failed auto-recording attempts are retried automatically with exponential backoff
### API Polling Recommendations
- Poll camera status every 2-3 seconds for real-time updates
- Poll auto-recording status every 5-10 seconds
- Use WebSocket connections if available for real-time machine state updates
## 📱 Mobile Considerations
- Auto-recording controls should be easily accessible on mobile
- Status indicators should be clear and readable on small screens
- Consider collapsible sections for detailed auto-recording information
## 🔍 Testing Checklist
- [ ] Auto-recording toggle works for each camera
- [ ] Status updates reflect machine state changes
- [ ] Error states are clearly displayed
- [ ] Manual recording overrides auto-recording
- [ ] Retry mechanism is visible to users
- [ ] Mobile interface is functional
This guide provides everything needed to update the React app to fully support the new auto-recording feature!

"message": "Stopped streaming for camera camera1"
}
```
### Live Stream (MJPEG)
```http
GET /cameras/{camera_name}/stream
```
**Response:** Multipart MJPEG stream
**Content-Type:** `multipart/x-mixed-replace; boundary=frame`
## 🌐 Web Interface Usage
The included `camera_preview.html` provides a complete web interface:
1. **Camera Grid**: Shows all configured cameras
2. **Stream Controls**: Start/Stop/Refresh buttons for each camera
3. **Live Preview**: Real-time video feed display
4. **Status Information**: System and camera status
5. **Responsive Design**: Works on desktop and mobile
### Features:
- ✅ Real-time camera status
- ✅ One-click stream start/stop
- ✅ Automatic stream refresh
- ✅ System health monitoring
- ✅ Error handling and status messages
## 🔧 Technical Details
### Camera Streamer Configuration
- **Preview FPS**: 10 FPS (configurable)
- **JPEG Quality**: 70% (configurable)
- **Frame Buffer**: 5 frames (prevents memory buildup)
- **Timeout**: 200ms per frame capture
### Memory Management
- Automatic frame buffer cleanup
- Queue-based frame management
- Proper camera resource cleanup on stop
### Thread Safety
- Thread-safe streaming operations
- Independent from recording threads
- Proper synchronization with locks

- ✅ Concurrent recording and streaming
- ✅ Error handling
### Manual Testing
1. Start the system: `python main.py`
2. Open `camera_preview.html` in browser
3. Start streaming for a camera
4. Trigger recording via MQTT or manual API
5. Verify both work simultaneously
## 🔄 Concurrent Operations
The system supports these concurrent operations:
| Operation | Recording | Streaming | Notes |
|-----------|-----------|-----------|-------|
| Recording Only | ✅ | ❌ | Normal operation |
| Streaming Only | ❌ | ✅ | Preview without recording |
| Both Concurrent | ✅ | ✅ | **Independent connections** |
### Example: Concurrent Usage
```bash
# Start streaming
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/cameras/camera1/start-stream
# Start recording (while streaming continues)
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/cameras/camera1/start-recording \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"filename": "test_recording.avi"}'
# Both operations run independently!
```
## 🛠️ Configuration
### Stream Settings (in CameraStreamer)
```python
self.preview_fps = 10.0 # Lower FPS for preview
self.preview_quality = 70 # JPEG quality (1-100)
self._frame_queue.maxsize = 5 # Frame buffer size
```
### Camera Settings
The streamer uses the same camera configuration as recording:
- Exposure time from `camera_config.exposure_ms`
- Gain from `camera_config.gain`
- Optimized trigger mode for continuous streaming
## 🚨 Important Notes
### Camera Access Patterns
- **Recording**: Blocks camera during active recording
- **Streaming**: Uses separate connection, doesn't block
- **Health Checks**: Brief, non-blocking camera tests
- **Multiple Streams**: Multiple browsers can view same stream
### Performance Considerations
- Streaming uses additional CPU/memory resources
- Lower preview FPS reduces system load
- JPEG compression reduces bandwidth usage
- Frame queue prevents memory buildup
### Error Handling
- Automatic camera resource cleanup
- Graceful handling of camera disconnections
- Stream auto-restart capabilities
- Detailed error logging
## 🔍 Troubleshooting
### Stream Not Starting
1. Check camera availability: `GET /cameras`
2. Verify camera not in error state
3. Check system logs for camera initialization errors
4. Try camera reconnection: `POST /cameras/{name}/reconnect`
### Poor Stream Quality

- GigE camera SDK (MVSDK) - included in `python demo/` directory
## Usage
### Option 1: Standalone Script
Run the standalone Python script:
```bash
python camera_capture.py
```
This will:
1. Initialize the camera SDK
2. Detect available cameras
3. Connect to the first camera found
4. Configure camera settings (manual exposure, continuous mode)
5. Capture 10 images with 200ms intervals
6. Save images to the `images/` directory
7. Clean up and close the camera
### Option 2: Jupyter Notebook
Open and run the `test.ipynb` notebook:
```bash
jupyter notebook test.ipynb
```
The notebook provides the same functionality but with:
- Step-by-step execution
- Detailed explanations
- Visual display of the last captured image
- Better error reporting
## Camera Configuration
The scripts are configured with the following default settings:
- **Trigger Mode**: Continuous capture (mode 0)
