In this part we will explain how camera program operate and is made. First we will explain how the camera program operates.

  • The operation of the camera program:

The operation of the camera occurs through three basic steps

  • Acquiring the picture from the camera.

  • Matching the picture with its name , number and its coordinates .

  • Saving the matched picture on the computer .

  • How is the camera program  made ?

The camera program is made by using visual basic program which is one of the most interesting programs. First we will explain how the program is made step by step and finally we will introduce the over all program "source code" to you.

  • The first step in the program is how the program acquires the pictures from the camera.

    The camera has a memory card on it which is used to store its pictures on it , the camera is known to the computer as a removable disk ,so from this the program access this drive and Acquire the pictures from the drive.

  • The second step in the program is how the program match  the pictures with their name, number and their coordinates. The camera creates for each taken picture name. from this name we can get its number. The coordinates we will get them from the main program which gets the coordinates with the time in which the coordinates is recorded. From this time we know also which picture is taken. So, we can get any coordinate of the picture from array is stored before in array. And then the picture appears with a label which contains the name, number, and the coordinates of the picture.

There are more options that can be used to get the picture in the best state like the size of the picture "Zoom" and the rotation of the picture in four directions as shown in the first figure.

  • The final step is saving the picture the program has the facility to specify the location in which the picture will be saved.
