Could Someone Make a Script that saves the Frame?

Pixy Software

I understand that you can go to the PixyMon and hit File > Save Image But could someone write a script to do this?

It would be a great help!

Thanks, Collin

Hello Collin,
Do you want to save several images (like a movie)? What do you want the script to do?

Thanks Edward! I would love for it to save multiple frames. But If I have to just keep calling the script that’s fine too.

I would like the script to save Images from the Pixy to a Directory (Anything is Fine) and It will name each picture in ascending order. I will be using a combination of gstreamer and Motion to create these pictures into a movie that translates into a IP Camera.

Thanks, Collin

Hello Collin,
Saving multiple frames isn’t supported in the current version of PixyMon, but I’ll put it down as a feature request. You could modify PixyMon to do this. There is information on how to compile here:

Hope this helps!
