bsch 1.0.4

No project description provided

bsch

A Python package to support my random collection of Bosch devices. Most of this code was created by investigating the device communication and their exported files.

Installation:

This package can be installed or upgraded from the Python Package Index with the help of the pip command:

pip install --upgrade bsch[plotting]

For any plotting, the package relies on matplotlib/numpy. Those packages are only installed if the "extra" plotting is specified in square brackets after the package name.

Bosch GTC 400 C

IR / Thermography Camera

Implemented features:

• Open the JPEG files saved by the IR camera and extract the embedded binary thermography data, I call this data 'thermoblob'.
• Extract metadata and the temperature matrix from the thermoblob.
• Export a thermography plot (tool: gtc400c-thermogram).
• Interactive plot of the thermography data (tool: gtc400c-plot).
• Create a custom blend of thermography data on top of the real photo (tool: gtc400c-blend).
• Download images via FTP when connected to the device via WiFi (tool: gtc400c-ftp).

Planned Support

I own the laser distance measurement tool Bosch GLM 50-27 CG. It has a BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) interface and I successfully reverse engineered the protocol. Needs some polishing though.
