The Prosilica GX camera just works, it’s very simple to set up, and I’ve made the first openFrameworks based software sketch using the AVT GigE Vision library.
It’s a sketch, and the code is only relevant to other programmers using this camera, but I’ve put it up on my GitHub nonetheless.

About the code
prosilicaAlternatingExposureSketch is a first attempt at doing continuously alternating exposures 3 steps apart for on-the fly 1080p HDR video capture.
Included is a ofxVideoGrabberProsilica addon, that implements some of the most relevant parameters for controlling a AVT Prosilica GX1920 camera and using software triggering. It is ok for trivial use, but does not provide the accurate timing necessary for high framerate usage yet. The code is based on Stephan Schulz’ code from the openFrameworks forum.
