Telivision - Pythonic controller for Telicam

Simple Python wrapper for Toshiba's Python API. Source code available in Github.

Setup

External requirements:

• pytelicam from Toshiba TeliSDK
  • A wheel is included in this github repo for convenience, as allowed by the Toshiba SDK license.
  • Up-to-date versions may be downloaded from Toshiba's site

Usage

For simple camera mode operation, the library implements a telivision command, which runs the default interface (currently a simple OpenCV interface) in camera mode. The interface implements commands for pause/play (space), manual trigger capture (R when paused), and saving current capture (S).

For algorithmic control, one should use the TeliWrapper and TeliCamera interfaces. A minimal working example of streaming video from a telicam:

from telivision.teliwrap import TeliWrapper
import cv2

wrap = TeliWrapper()
cam = wrap.create_camera(0)
cam.start_stream()

while True:
    image = cam.trigger_capture()
    cv2.imshow("Teli Camera", image)
    key = cv2.waitKey(1)
    if key == 27:  # ESC key
        cv2.destroyAllWindows()
        break

cam.stop_stream()
