weompy 1.7.179

Python library for controlling WEOM IR cameras

WEOM Python interface

version: 1.7.179

WEOMPy is a comprehensive Python library designed to control WEOM cameras using the Python language.

The library can access the following key WEOM thermal core features

• read device information such as serial number, firmware version, etc...
• change display parameters (display palette, contrast, brightness, frame rate, gain, etc..)
• view and capture images
• update thermal core firmware
• manage sensor dead pixels

We provide documentation, howtos and tutorials in a form Jupyter notebooks. The notebooks and example can be found in directory where the library is installed using pip. We strongly recommend the use of Python virtual environments to avoid any possible conflicts. To create and activate a clean WEOMPy Python environment run

⚠️ Important

On some systems there might be dependency issues using Python installations from Microsoft Store. We strongly discourage from using those.

python -m venv <venv_directories>/weompy

. <venv_directories>/weompy/bin/activate

now we have a clean Python environment and we can proceed by installing the library

pip install weompy

After these steps you can find the documentation and example in

<venv_directories>/weompy/lib/python<version>/site-packages/weompy/example.py

<venv_directories>/weompy/lib/python<version>/site-packages/weompy/user_documentation.ipynb

Also we provide stubs for IDE code completion in

<venv_directories>/weompy/lib/python<version>/site-packages/weompy/weompy.pyi

Prerequisites:

• Python 3.8 - 3.12
• Jupyter extension by Microsoft installed on VSCode, if you want to open user_documentation.ipynb in VSCode
