I am working on a project which requires fast image capture speed for color 640x480 level. But I could only get around 1.5 fps. Is it possible to increase the fps in the software domain? We intend to use limited hardware (without any TV card.. ) because finally the project will be moved to laptops. DOes anybody get more fps using any Video Cameras. I used Creative labs ct6840 USB WebCam. And the test was run on a dual CPU (800M) 512 MB mem Linux box (kernel 2.4.9-12smp). Thanks.
