pyGigEVision#
Pure-Python implementation of the GigE Vision protocol (GVCP + GVSP).
pyGigEVision is the foundation other vendor-specific GigE Vision
camera drivers can build on top of. It exposes the protocol primitives:
discovery, control register access, streaming reception, and GenICam
descriptor download. Vendor-specific behaviour is not included.
The protocol implementation is pure Python: no vendor SDKs, no GenTL producers.
Quickstart#
from pyGigEVision import discover, bootstrap, GVSPReceiver
cameras = discover()
if cameras:
ip = cameras[0]["ip"]
client, xml = bootstrap(ip)
# ... configure registers, start GVSPReceiver, grab frames
See Getting started for a step-by-step introduction.
Vendor drivers such as pyTelops (Telops infrared cameras) build on
this protocol layer.
