usb webcam runs slowly on raspberry pi with opencv


I have some code that I have adapted to run on a headless Rpi using a usb webcam, it is running a bit slow, so my questions are:

  1. If I were to use the GPI pins with a dedicated webcam would that be faster?

  2. Is there any way to speed up my code for Rpi?

  3. Where can I get a Rpi webcam?

My code is here, I struggle to paste inline so its a link


Solution

  • For your question about where to get a Pi camera, a new camera has recently been release. I don't know about speeding up you code, but you might want to overclock your Pi. Good luck,
