How can I acquire frames from a live video stream, acquire the frames, then use the frames to recreate the live video stream?

Hello. I want to detect red objects from the live video stream (I know how to detect red objects)

What I want to know is how to acquire the frames from the original live video stream and recreate another live video stream using the processed frames and play these two video streams side by side.

Please help. I'd be really grateful to you.

Use getsnapshot()

Thank you for your quick reply.

But what about constructing another video stream using the acquired frames and play both video streams side by side? Could you please help me?

I have not personally done that so I can't direct you. Call tech support and they will help you.

Okay. Thank you for your time and help. I'll try to do that.

One such example.

v = VideoReader('xylophone.mp4');

% Display first frame
firstFrame = readFrame(v);
subplot(1,2,1)
h1 = imshow(firstFrame);
subplot(1,2,2)
h2 = imshow(rgb2gray(firstFrame));
% Loop through all frames
while hasFrame(v)
    frame = readFrame(v);
    frameG = rgb2gray(frame);
    % Update image
    h1.CData = frame;
    h2.CData = frameG;
    drawnow
end
