Question

I have a matlab code for opening the webcam and generating a snapshot when the photo has been taken.

instead of having two windows pop up is there a way to have both the live webcam and the picture taken side by side?

Answer 1

Solution: Yes, it is possible for having the live cam, as well as the picture, was taken side-by-side. This can be performed using the object of the webcam class and in order to get the snapshot, you can call the snapshot function. This works because whenever the webcam object is created, it tries to establish the connection with the camera, and eventually establishes exclusive access, once the connection is established it starts streaming the data. This data that is being streamed can be previewed using the snapshot function.
