Opened this issue · 0 comments

Overview

This python module will be responsible for IO of the exposure data coming from the camera.

Use Cases

  • Monochromatic exposure (the easiest one)
  • RGB exposure (will require multiple HDUs)

Requirements

  • takes in image numpy array
  • takes in information about temp, exp. time, image type, timestamp, filter
  • puts in information as header
  • write to file (where it will be later transferred to the client by the Flask server)
