With these interfaces, you can easily control your Mech-Eye cameras with Python programs. The features are as follows:

• Connect to your camera in your LAN.
• Set and get camera parameters such as exposure time, ROI, and so on.

Installation

Dependencies

We ran and tested these interfaces on Python3.7 - Python3.11.

The numpy library is needed:

you can install numpy with pip using the following command:

pip install numpy

Installing official version from PyPI using PIP

Use PIP to fetch the latest official version from PyPI:

On some systems Python3's pip is called pip3. In this guide we assume it is called pip. If you are using PIP with version 19 or higher, build dependencies are handled automatically.
