This wrapper enables operating Cubert GmbH Hyperspectral Cameras, as well as, analyzing data directly from the corporate data format(s) within python. This wrapper provides an object-oriented full representation of the basic C SDK capabilities and python return variable formats based on commonly used modules, like dictionaries, datetime or numpy objects.

For other supported program languages, please have a look at the source code page.

Installation

Prerequisites

First, you need to install the Cuvis C SDK from here. The installation registers the installation path in the environment, which the python wrapper is linked to.

:warning: If the C SDK is reinstalled into another directory later on, the linkage breaks and the python wrapper might stop working.

Via pip

If you wish to use cuvis within another project, from within your project environment, run

pip install cuvis

or add cuvis to your project requirements.txt or setup.py. We currently provide pre-compiled binaries for Python 3.9, 3.10, 3.11 and 3.12 for Windows, Ubuntu 20.04 and Ubuntu 22.04 (all 64-bit).

To access the newest python cuvis version (for use with SDK beta versions, etc) you can install it with

pip install cuvis --pre

Via repository

If you wish to download and use the newest development cuvis locally, clone the git repository

git clone [e-mail]:cubert-hyperspectral/cuvis.python.git

and install the wrapper locally.

If you wish to use the version compatible to the available Cuvis SDK download, check out the version on the site above and use the respective release branch (e.g. release/v3.2).

For building the python bindings refer to cuvis.pyil.
