Arducam 64 MP UVC USB3 Autofocus

  1. Where did you get the camera module(s)?
    Arducam

  2. Model number of the product(s)?
    Arducam 64MP Motorized Focus USB 3.0 Camera Module

  3. What hardware/platform were you working on?
    Windows / Linux

  4. Instructions you have followed. (link/manual/etc.)
    Link, softwares, manual

  5. Problems you were having?
    I can play with the focus on the software recomanded and with the demo given. But I cannot use the autofocus function from openCV. I was wondering if you had an example with autofocus for this camera using python and openCV. As cap.set(cv2.CAP_PROP_AUTOFOCUS, 1) does not work, I guess that we need to make our own autofocus system using CV2. Do you have an example by any chance ?

  6. The dmesg log from your hardware?

  7. Troubleshooting attempts you’ve made?
    modify code and your arducam_demo.py

  8. What help do you need?
    A way of making cap.set(cv2.CAP_PROP_AUTOFOCUS, 1) work with this USB camera or a sample of code that make the camera use autofocus in python.

Anyone on this question ?

Can we actually use an autofocus function on the 64MP UVC USB3.0 camera ?

Thank you
