## Installation

### Dependencies

• [Python](https://www.python.org/) version 3.5 or higher

• [Zivid SDK](https://zivid.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ZividKB/pages/59080712/Zivid+Software+Installation) version 1.3.0 or higher

• [Compiler](doc/CompilerInstallation.md) with C++17 support

Windows users also needs to make sure that the Zivid SDK installation folder is in system `PATH` before using the package, not only the terminal PATH variable. The default install location that should be added to system `PATH` is `C:Program FilesZividbin`.

### Using PIP

The easiest way to install the package is to use PIP.

When using PIP version 19 or higher build dependencies will be handled automatically.

#### Old PIP

If you are using a version of PIP older than version 19 please manually install the dependencies listed in [pyproject.toml](pyproject.toml) before installing the zivid package.

pip install scikit-build cmake ninja

Installation of the zivid package may take some time since the setup.py script will download additional dependencies and compile C++ source code in the background.

pip install zivid

## Quick Start

Launch a Python interpreter and run the following code.

import zivid app = zivid.Application() camera = app.connect_camera() frame = camera.capture() frame.save(“my-frame.zdf”)

For more advanced usage see the [Examples](#examples) section.

### Using camera emulation

If you do not have a camera, you can use the MiscObjects.zdf file in [ZividSampleData.zip](http://www.zivid.com/software/ZividSampleData.zip) to emulate a camera.

import zivid app = zivid.Application() camera = app.create_file_camera(“path/to/MiscObjects.zdf”) frame = camera.capture() frame.save(“my-frame.zdf”)

## Examples

Standalone example programs can be found in the [samples](samples) directory.
