12.1.10.6.2. DummyGrabberΒΆ
This demo shows with the example of the DummyGrabber
how grabber and cameras are used in itom
.
from itom import dataIO
from itom import dataObject
from itom import plot
from itom import liveImage
Start camera (e.g.: DummyGrabber
)
camera = dataIO("DummyGrabber") # noise camera
cameraGaussian = dataIO("DummyGrabber", imageType="gaussianSpot") # moving Gaussian spot
cameraGaussianArray = dataIO("DummyGrabber", imageType="gaussianSpotArray") # moving 4 Gaussian spots
Set region of interest (ROI). x: [100,499] -> width: 400 (borders are included!) y: [40, 349] -> height: 310
camera.setParam("roi", [100, 40, 400, 300])
# or:
# camera.setParam("roi[0]", 100)
# camera.setParam("roi[2]", 400) #...
print("width:", camera.getParam("sizex"))
print("height:", camera.getParam("sizey"))
width: 400
height: 300
Set bits per pixel (bpp).
camera.setParam("bpp", 8)
# print available parameters of that device
print("DummyGrabber has the following parameters:")
print(camera.getParamList())
# print detailed information about parameters:
print(camera.getParamListInfo())
DummyGrabber has the following parameters:
['binning', 'bpp', 'demoArbitraryString', 'demoEnumString', 'demoEnumStringList', 'demoRegexpString', 'demoWildcardString', 'frame_time', 'gain', 'integration_time', 'name', 'offset', 'roi', 'sizex', 'sizey']
None
Read parameters from device.
sizex = camera.getParam("sizex")
sizey = camera.getParam("sizey")
Start camera.
camera.startDevice()
Acquire single image.
camera.acquire()
# Create empty dataObject for getting the image
data = dataObject()
# get a reference to the acquired image
# the reference is then available by the recently created dataObject
camera.getVal(data)
Warning
The method getVal returns only a shallow copy of the plugin internal memory. Therefore, the content of data will change when the next image is acquired. In order to create a deep copy of data, type:
camera.copyVal(data)
# You can also convert the data afterwards to a deep copy by typing:
dataCopy = data.copy()
# plot the acquired image
plot(data)
(150, PlotItem(UiItem(class: Itom2dQwtPlot, name: plot0x0)))
Stop camera.
camera.stopDevice()
Start a live image.
liveImage(camera)
(151, PlotItem(UiItem(class: Itom2dQwtPlot, name: plot0x0)))
liveImage(cameraGaussian)
(152, PlotItem(UiItem(class: Itom2dQwtPlot, name: plot0x0)))
liveImage(cameraGaussianArray)
(153, PlotItem(UiItem(class: Itom2dQwtPlot, name: plot0x0)))
Acquire an image stack of 10 measurements.
num = 100
camera.startDevice()
image = dataObject()
imageStack = dataObject([num, sizey, sizex], "uint8")
# stop the auto grabbing of the live image
camera.disableAutoGrabbing()
for idx in range(num):
camera.acquire()
camera.getVal(image)
imageStack[idx, :, :] = image
print(idx)
camera.stopDevice()
# acquire stack finished
# plot stack (use arrows in widget to switch between planes)
plot(imageStack)
# enable the auto grabbing of the live image
camera.enableAutoGrabbing()
