PyTac3D 3.3.0.8

Tac3D sensor interface

Python Compatibility: Requires Python 3.7 through 3.11

Installation

conda create -n tac3d python=3.11 tk
conda activate tac3d
pip install pytac3d

Quick Start

1. Export demonstration files:

   pytac3d-demo  # Exports examples to current directory

2. Navigate to examples directory:

   cd pytac3d_examples

3. Execute the example scripts:

   python get_object_info.py  # View tactile sensor outputs

4. You can also use the Tac3D sensor through a GUI tool:

   pytac3d-gui  # run the gui tool

Simple Usage

For more complex implementations, reference the following pattern:

import PyTac3D

import time

# Initialize sensor interface
sensor = PyTac3D.Sensor(port=9988)

sensor.waitForFrame()

# Stream data acquisition
while True:

    time.sleep(0.03)

    frame = sensor.getFrame()

    if not frame is None:

        print(frame['index'])
