Pixymon RGB Color query

Pixy Software
#1

Hello, we have modified the Pixymon application to allow test automation from a console application on a PC. The communication method is TCP/IP.

We, however, may want to grab RGB values of pixel locations.

Would it be easily possible for us to modify Pixymon app to allow this? Would it be better to use the getRGB method of video API or use the get_raw_frame example? Is the Pixymon app exercising either of these methods to display GUI image?

(Note: we are using USB interface)

#2

Hello,
I think using the getRGB method is a straightforward method, but you want to do it over TCPI/IP with a modified version of Pixymon?

I think ser_packet() might be the method you’re interested in, but I’m not sure I understand what you’re doing. That is, you can call ser_packet from PixyMon and it will behave as if a serial device is trying to communicate with Pixy.

Hope this helps!
