I have a project where i need to work with a USB camera to process images aquired at a very close range (under 5mm). Because the space available is very short, I can't use auxiliary lens.
I know I can do some post processing at bitmap level, but I would like to gain access to properties like auto-focus or white balancing at camera level.
I'm developing in C# with AForge for image aquisition and post processing, but I can't seem to find a way to control the camera before the image aquisition takes place.
Can you help me?
