MATLAB: Matlab android camera and object tracking

*matlab image acquisation

by refering to this code:
url = 'http://<ip address>/shot.jpg';
ss  = imread(url);
fh = image(ss);
while(1)
    ss  = imread(url);
    set(fh,'CData',ss);
    drawnow;
end
i able to display the video from android phone ( using app ip camera), and i dont know on how to combine this code with below code:
vid = videoinput('winvideo', 1);
% Set the properties of the video object
set(vid, 'FramesPerTrigger', Inf);
set(vid, 'ReturnedColorspace', 'rgb')
vid.FrameGrabInterval = 5;
%start the video aquisition here
start(vid)  ( here the video is taken from webcam, i want it to be taken from my android phone)
% Set a loop that stop after 100 frames of aquisition
while(vid.FramesAcquired<=200)
      % Get the snapshot of the current frame
      data = getsnapshot(vid);
      % Now to track red objects in real time
      % we have to subtract the red component 
      % from the grayscale image to extract the red components in the image.
      diff_im = imsubtract(data(:,:,1), rgb2gray(data));
      %Use a median filter to filter out noise
      diff_im = medfilt2(diff_im, [3 3]);
      % Convert the resulting grayscale image into a binary image.
      diff_im = im2bw(diff_im,0.18);
      % Remove all those pixels less than 300px
      diff_im = bwareaopen(diff_im,300);
      % Label all the connected components in the image.
      bw = bwlabel(diff_im, 8);
      % Here we do the image blob analysis.
      % We get a set of properties for each labeled region.
      stats = regionprops(bw, 'BoundingBox', 'Centroid');
      % Display the image
      imshow(data)
      hold on
      %This is a loop to bound the red objects in a rectangular box.
      for object = 1:length(stats)
          bb = stats(object).BoundingBox;
          bc = stats(object).Centroid;
          rectangle('Position',bb,'EdgeColor','r','LineWidth',2)
          plot(bc(1),bc(2), '-m+')
          a=text(bc(1)+15,bc(2), strcat('X: ', num2str(round(bc(1))), '    Y: ', num2str(round(bc(2)))));
          set(a, 'FontName', 'Arial', 'FontWeight', 'bold', 'FontSize', 12, 'Color', 'yellow');
      end
      hold off
  end
  % Both the loops end here.
% Stop the video aquisition.
stop(vid);
% Flush all the image data stored in the memory buffer.
flushdata(vid);
% Clear all variables
clear all

Best Answer

Replace
data = getsnapshot(vid);
with
data = imread(url);
