canavaroski90 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Hi all! I'm an interested person in emdbedded systems. Nowadays, I'm trying to learn Android. However I've stucked in my first try. I was working on a test project about processing video to detect motion (I'm also interested in image processing projects). In the middle of searching types of platforms, I've discovered very-mini and powerful android PC's. I've bought an OEM Android tablet pc without integrated camera. And my problem started. I'm trying to connect a USB web cam to my Android PC. It has ICS on it and supports USB Host mode. When I conenct my pendrives it automatically recognizes and I can surf in my folders using my tablet. However it did not recognize my webcam. I've made a kind of search in google and I found something called "V4L" or "V4L2". I think this is the driver that I need. However I have no idea about integrating drivers to kernel or compiling a new kernel or how to flash my tablets nand memory. I've found this link but I couldn't install the driver. Because I do not know how to integrate it. http://brain.cc.kogakuin.ac.jp/research/usb-e.html Waiting for your replies. Where should I start, what should I search and where should I start to search? Thank you very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
