pyfly2
Python wrapper for Point Grey Research's FlyCapture2 C API
Introduction
pyfly2 slowly coming together, a lot slower than I want, but getting there.
Note: This module is for Python2 and hasn't yet been updated to work with Python3.
Status
This wrapper is currently under development.
- What works:
- Creating flycapture2 context
- Creating single camera object and enabling capture mode
- Grabbing frames
- A few simple demos:
- Scriptable frame grab
- "Live preview" GUI with frame grab
- What still needs to be done:
- Robustness (USB3 driver seems picky about shutting down the context. This is a drag when debugging new features)
- Illustrate using multiple cores to enhance image pipeline using ZeroMQ
Requirements
- python
- cython
- Point Grey FlyCapture 2 SDK
Installation
- Install the FlyCapture2 SDK
- Edit setup.py and point FLYCAPTURESDK to the root of the SDK
- From the FlyCapture2 SDK tree, copy these files to the package directory:
- FlyCapture2_Cd_v90.dll
- FlyCapture2d_v90.dll
- libiomp5md.dll
- python setup.py build_ext --inplace
