Raspberry Pi 3 PiCamera Still Frame Rate <p>I'm working with a Raspberry Pi 3 that has a ribbon PiCamera. My problem is that I cannot get the still (not video) frame rate to be workable. In my application, the camera acts like a scanner using only a single row of each frame to watch things go by. While the concept is fine, what's killing me is the frame rate which I cannot get above 30 FPS.</p> <p>A perfect solution would be for someone out there taking the raspicam source, stripped it down and tuning it for speed, and bolting it up to OpenCV. Has anyone done this? Did it work?</p> <p>The Ava Group in Spain (<a href="https://www.uco.es/investiga/grupos/ava/node/40" rel="nofollow">https://www.uco.es/investiga/grupos/ava/node/40</a>) took an initial stab at this, but their still frame rate is also limited to 30 FPS.</p>
