Support for SIYI ZT6 Thermal Camera Module #15
Comments
Hi @ThakurSarveshGit I simply used the latest SDK manual at that time and I don't think it is complicated to implement, with sufficient background in python. |
Thanks for your response. Really appreciate that. Good to know that it's not that complicated. However, Does the SDK allows to fetch the raw images as well without any graphic overlays and 16 bit format for Thermal images? Also, what are the pros/cons you think of using SIYI cameras for robotics applications like SLAM? |
@ThakurSarveshGit Did you manage to use the zt6 camera with python? |
@ThakurSarveshGit extracting images with or without overlays depends on the SDK not the implementation of this package. This package is just an implementation of "some" of the SDK features for the cameras that I had at that time (A8 Mini, and ZR10). So, for other cameras, you will need to look at the latest docs and add/implement the missing features in the package. A PR is highly appreciated. Using SIYI in robotics is a very wide question. It really depends on the applications. If it's object detection and surveillance application, then yes. For SLAM, it is recommended to use cameras with global shutters. As far as I know, SIYI cameras come with rolling shutter and not with global shutter. |
Hi,
Thanks for the wonderful work. I am interested in utilizing ZT6 module which consists of a thermal sensor as well RGB sensor. I want to use it for robotics application and not sure about the support of SDK for the same. Will your module work for ZT6 as well. Also, where is the official SDK for these cameras located? How difficult and time-taking was the process of writing the Python Wrapper for the SDK?
Looking Forward to your response. Thank you.
Regards,
Sarvesh
