Camera switch

Fontys minor Embedded Systems project. In collaboration with CTouch.

Group 3:

• Robin Witmer
• Alexandru Malgras
• Jelle Schroijen

Setup

1. Install Python, OBS Studio
2. Use the command line tool called pip to install the following Python libraries (Enter pip install package-name in CMD or PowerShell):
   • opencv-python
   • pyvirtualcam
3. Change parameters in the file called camera_switch.py according to your needs.
4. Use the python command to run the camera_switch.py program (Enter python camera_swich.py in CMD or PowerShell and make sure you are in the correct directory).

Important notes

While you do need to install OBS Studio to run the Python application, I does not need to be running in order to use the virtual camera. We used Python version 3.9.7 for our tests, using a different version might cause some issues. Make sure you have 2 or more camera inputs when running the program.
