*This launches a Matlab utility which is an interactive GUI that allows you to explore, configure, and acquire data from your installed and supported image acquisition devices. If this doesn't work, Matlab can't find your camera. (Whenever you plug-and-play a camera, Windows enables the default Windows driver, which may actually be the camera manufacturer's driver. If the default Windows driver isn't DCAM compatible, Matlab can't find your camera.)
