Snap photos of envelopes as they roll down a conveyor.

Hi there poolet08 - thanks for using Dropbox and posting on our Community!
There's no way to achieve what you had in mind at the moment through Dropbox, but there might be a third party app or integration that could help.
That said, can you let us know more about what you'd like to accomplish and how?
Would using the Dropbox APIs be an option for you perhaps?
Keep us posted!

Hi Walter,
Any idea what integration may work? Basically just as the envelopes come down the conveyor, a photo is snapped and the image is cropped and saved in jpg format. I am also open to dropbox taking a video and then extracting the images somehow and saving them in jpg format cropped and in color. Thats really all I need. There are lots of scanning functions that can seem to accomplish this but nothing that can do it on a continual basis.

That's not what Dropbox does. Dropbox is a storage service. It doesn't have the ability to take photos or videos on its own. You need another application to handle that part, preferably one that can connect to Dropbox to store the files.
