MATLAB: Acessing Camera

64-bitacessing cameracameradriversimage processingimaqhwinfo

Hi,
I have a CCD camera that i will be using for image processing and I'm having problems getting MATLAB to find the camera. it is connected to a 64bit dell desktop by firewire. i downloaded the diver (CMU 1394Camera) and the Demo worked fine i could locate the camera and see a preview. however MATLAB is another story, here is what i did:
>> imaqhwinfo
ans =
InstalledAdaptors: {'winvideo'}
MATLABVersion: '7.11 (R2010b)'
ToolboxName: 'Image Acquisition Toolbox'
ToolboxVersion: '4.0 (R2010b)'
>> info = imaqhwinfo('winvideo')
info =
AdaptorDllName: 'C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2010b\toolbox\imaq\imaqadaptors\win64\mwwinvideoimaq.dll'
AdaptorDllVersion: '4.0 (R2010b)'
AdaptorName: 'winvideo'
DeviceIDs: {1x0 cell}
DeviceInfo: [1x0 struct]
>> dev_info = imaqhwinfo('winvideo',1)
??? Error using ==> imaqhwinfo at 138
There is no device with the specified DEVICEID.
can i get some help.
thanks,
Minh

The CMU DCAM drivers don't currently support 64-bit versions of Windows. What camera are you using?
