C# Class CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice

An abstraction of the RaspiCam device. RaspiCam is a peripheral camera device designed specifically for use with the Raspberry Pi. The class provides a threaded wrapper around the raspistill utility and thus a means for still capture control. See http://www.raspberrypi.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/RaspiCam-Documentation.pdf for instructions on how to install and configure RaspiCam support.

Public Methods

Method	Description
Cancel ( ) : void	Cancels the still capture process, if running.
Dispose ( ) : void	Releases all resource used by the CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice object. Call Dispose when you are finished using the CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice. The Dispose method leaves the CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice in an unusable state. After calling Dispose, you must release all references to the CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice so the garbage collector can reclaim the memory that the CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice was occupying.
PiCameraDevice ( ) : System	Initializes a new instance of the CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice class. This is the default constructor.
PiCameraDevice ( StillCaptureSettings settings ) : System	Initializes a new instance of the CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice class with the image capture settings.
Start ( ) : void	Starts the capture process on a separate thread, then immediately returns will the process continues in the background.

Protected Methods

Method	Description
OnCaptureDone ( CaptureDoneEventArgs e ) : void	Raises the CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice.CaptureDone event.
OnCaptureOutputRecieved ( CaptureOutputEventArgs e ) : void	Raises the CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice.CaptureOutputReceived event.
OnCaptureStarted ( CaptureStartEventArgs e ) : void	Raises the CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice.CaptureStarted event.

Private Methods

Method	Description
MonitorCapture ( ) : void	Monitors the capture process.

Method Details

Cancel() public method

Cancels the still capture process, if running.

public Cancel ( ) : void
return	void

Dispose() public method

Releases all resource used by the CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice object.

Call Dispose when you are finished using the CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice. The Dispose method leaves the CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice in an unusable state. After calling Dispose, you must release all references to the CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice so the garbage collector can reclaim the memory that the CyrusBuilt.MonoPi.Devices.PiCamera.PiCameraDevice was occupying.

public Dispose ( ) : void
return	void
