Has anyone had any success with integrating a USB Camera with the PathPilot software to allow use of the Scanner functions? The scanner software was originally designed as an add-on th the Mach III version of the software; Path Pilot seems to include support for the scanner function, but I've not seen it used on anything but a Mach III setup.

I'm running the most current version of PathPilot, Ver. 1.9.2 released 11/04/15 (available here: http://www.tormach.com/pathpilot_tracking.html)

I have a number of USB microscopes (made by Saellig) that I have tried without success (to be fair, the Saelig cameras did not come with Linux drivers). I have requested help from Tormach; I am still waiting for their response.

Since PathPilot runs on Linux, I believe that this probably simply a driver issue; but I curious if anyone has actually used or seen the scanner used with PathPilot...

If so, what combination of camera & driver(s) did you use to get this function/hardware to work?

Thanks in advance for any help.
