Hi,
I want to connect a Phantom C211 camera to MATLAB using an ethernet cable. Is there an adaptor I need to intall for it or does MATLAB not support this camera?
Also, if possible, in future would it be possible to connect multiple cameras through the same method?
Thank you

To connect a Phantom C211 camera to MATLAB using an Ethernet cable, you will need to use the Camera Link interface and a frame grabber card that supports Camera Link.
MATLAB provides support for some frame grabber cards, but not all of them. Kindly check the support for the frame grabber card to be used by you.Once you have installed the appropriate frame grabber card and its driver, you can use MATLAB's Image Acquisition Toolbox to acquire images from the camera. You can connect to the camera using the "gigecam" adaptor, which supports GigE Vision cameras.To set up the connection, you can use the "imaqhwinfo" function to get information about the available hardware adaptors, and then use the "videoinput" function to create a video input object for the camera.
