Error using videoinput (line 233) There are no devices installed for the specified ADAPTORNAME. See IMAQHWINFO.
Error in webcamera_dct (line 5) vid = videoinput('qimaging',1);

Best Answer

You either need to use imaqtool() to register a third party adaptor from the pulldown menus. Or you need install the webcam support package from the main MATLAB Apps tab-> Addons menu
"MATLAB Support Package for USB Webcams version 16.2.0.0 by MathWorks Image Acquisition Toolbox "
"Image Acquisition Toolbox Support Package for OS Generic Video Interface"
Type webcam and camera and generic into the search field of the "Add on explorer" window to find these packages.
