IC Capture - Image Acquisition

Software application to capture and display single images, image sequences and image data streams from all WDM video sources (cameras, converters etc.) manufactured by The Imaging Source.

Starting with version 2.5.1557.4007 device state XML files can be exported from "File" "Export Device State" menu. This allows IC Capture for device configuration and easy use of this configuration in your own IC Imaging Control program.

Some codecs will be unavailable in the 64-bit version. The 32-bit version is available in the Start Menu as "IC Capture 2.5 (32-bit)".
