Hello,

I am using a digital trigger to take pictures of a moving transport belt with products, I set the trigger up as in the example:

//ext trigger

camRgb->initialControl.setFrameSyncMode(dai::CameraControl::FrameSyncMode::INPUT);

camRgb->initialControl.setExternalTrigger(4, 3);

How can I retreive only the last taken image? Using the following code results in two images per trigger:

int LuxonisCam::Get_img(Mat& Color, Mat& Depth) {

auto inRgb = qRgb->get<dai::ImgFrame>();

auto inDepth = qDepth->get<dai::ImgFrame>();

if (inDepth && inRgb) {

Color = inRgb->getCvFrame();

Depth = inDepth->getCvFrame();

rotate(Color, Color, ROTATE_180);

rotate(Depth, Depth, ROTATE_180);

return 1;

}

return 0;

}

Thanks,

Pim

    You can set the queue size to 1 and blocking to false. This will allow you to only get the latest message sent to the queue.

      Hello Jaka,

      Thanks for your reply.

      When setting que to size 1 and blocking to false I still get two images for each trigger. However if I set the external trigger as follows:

      camRgb->initialControl.setExternalTrigger(4, 4);

      I only get one image. But this feels a bit strange as the amount of images taken in a burst is the same amount as you delete.

      Any ideas?
