XIMEA camera API

ximea-py

This module provides a python interface to XIMEA cameras. It is simply a repackaging of XIMEA's python drivers available at their page (package/api/Python/v3/ximea) in order to allow for easier installation with pip, e.g. into virtual or conda environments. Windows support was added too by including xiAPI's Windows libraries.

Prerequisites

Windows

1. Download and install XIMEA Windows Software Package
2. Make sure the camera is connected and recognized in xiCOP (XIMEA CameraControl Tool)

Linux

1. Download and install XIMEA Linux Software Package

2. Add users that will use the camera to the "plugdev" group:

   sudo usermod -aG plugdev <myuser>
   

Installation

Install with:

pip install ximea-py

and use like so:

import ximea.xiapi

ximea.xiapi.Camera()
