camera not showing

Hello guys, I wanted to view the camera in the driver station smartdashboard, but when I click add, it does not show Camera as a selection. In default dashboard, the camera is enabled and works. So is there anything I have to configure?

Re: camera not showing

Did you configure the camera for anonymous viewing? See http://wpilib.screenstepslive.com/s/3120/m/8559/l/89729

Team 3260 programmer here, we are having the exact same problem. Anonymous viewing is enabled and we can see the camera through the online page but the SmartDashboard is not displaying it. I've tried rebuilding all of the SmartDashboard/WPIJavaCV/NetworkTables/(pretty much everything that we have access to the source of) but I have yet to find a solution. We have tried completely resetting and reconfiguring the camera, using the automated utility, plugging it into the radio, and plugging it into the cRIO all to no avail.

I've checked the IP a few times and even tried assigning a completely different IP address to the camera. The "Default" dashboard wouldn't work if it weren't set to the correct IP, either.

Is there any chance you could send me your entire SmartDashboard folder? (Extensions and all) I'd like to see if it is simply a build related issue.

I would but I am at home now and we don't meet again until Friday because this week is finals for us. Hopefully some other team could.

Re: camera not showing

Has anyone had any luck getting this to work? We're still without camera in our SmartDashboard.

Re: camera not showing

Also I tried to use a modified camera widget displaying a crosshair, and that also did not work. There was also an update to FRC tools, but it did not fix anything with the camera problem.

Re: camera not showing

Check what the fps is for the stream. We had an issue where SmartDashboard Camera did not work if it got a fps under 30.

Where exactly is this setting? I couldn't seem to find one in the Camera's setup portal.

Re: camera not showing

I'm having the same problem with the Smart Dashboard. Default Dashboard shows the camera image just fine, so I believe that indicates the camera is configured correctly. SmartDashboard does not connect to the camera.

In addition, if I launch the SmartDashboard from the driver station I don't see any of the extensions widgets when I try to add a new object. If I launch the SmartDashboard directly using the SmartDashboard.exe executable all of the extensions show in the list. Camera still doesn't connect. I thought this might indicate an install problem, but I can't correct it, even after a reinstall.

If anyone has figured out how to correct these issues, your help would be appreciated.

Re: camera not showing

In order to be able to add the Camera to smartDashboard, you'll need to download the WPILibCameraExtension and place it in C:/ProgramFiles/SmartDashboard/extensions.

Then, just open SmartDashboard, click View, and Add, and the Camera Option should appear.

You can get the WPILibCameraExtension here:
https://www.assembla.com/spaces/tech...ware/documents

Click the first file.

Hope this helps.

Re: camera not showing

Extension was already present. Its part of the SmartDashboard Installer_1.0.4 that also installs the WPIJavaCV and openCV libraries
