Linux, Java and Video

I recently bought a wireless camera from x10.com. It came with a VCR commander and a couple of motion sensors. Those things are supposed to work together. But i thought that making it work with my linux box would have been a better way to handle it...

Install the frame grabber card'
  • Linux Red Hat 7.2 vanilla installation
  • Hauppage Win TV 98 PCI

To install just do the following sequence as root :
  • /sbin/insmod videodev
  • /sbin/insmod i2c-core
  • /sbin/insmod i2c-dev
  • modprobe bttv
Now you can start xawtv.

I found a simple java layer for Video4Linux. So now I have to create a simple program to detect movement between images. I made a couple of spikes and now i can tell that it's nearly working. I've used JAI (Java Advanced Imaging) to manipulate images. I need to find a better algorithm / tools to detect movement between frames. Actually my wireless cam seems to send frames with too much noise in my opinion. I need to find a way to substract this noise.

I did something like this (substract noise from wireless cam) last year, and now I've got to do it again, contact me if you're still interested. I'm in Montreal too. -- RobinMillette
