Virtual Network Computing (VNC)
MATRIX VISION GmbH
A closed source framework, defined and administered by the Automated
Imaging Association (AIA), for transmitting video and related control data
over USB 3.0. Sometimes U3V is used as an acronym.
Virtual Network Computing (VNC) is a
graphical desktop sharing system that uses the RFB protocol
to remotely control another computer. Over a network, it
transmits the mouse and keyboard events from one computer
to another, relaying the graphical screen updates back in
the other direction.
To access the camera's desktop from a PC via VNC,
• you have to know the IP address of the remote system.
• Start a VNC viewer and
• point it to the remote system.
You won't need a password. Of course, you won't get a very
fast live image display via the network with VNC but you
should be able to start wxPropView (p. 74) and capture images.
