Documentation Version Note

This document applies to Vcamera SDK 26.1.5 and later, using source-code compilation based on the no-installation package (.zip).

If you are using an earlier SDK release based on .exe/.deb installers, see the legacy documentation.

Download Vcamera SDK

Click the download link to get the latest no-installation Vcamera SDK package. It includes libraries for both Windows and Linux and can be compiled directly after extraction.

Directory Layout

The directory structure after extracting VcameraSDK-X.X.X is as follows:

Run Precompiled Files

If you do not need to compile the code yourself, the C++ SDK also provides precompiled sample programs in both Debug and Release versions, which can be run directly.

Using the Release version as an example, go to VcameraSDK-X.X.X/cpp/win/Release/samples, open a terminal, and run the program.
