cxSoftware Development Kit
Automation Technology´s Software Development Kit (cxSDK) is free of charge and allows
the programmatically access and control of C5 cameras and further the possibility of a
3D calibration.
The cxSDK provides a C-based application-programming interface (API) with language
wrappers for C++, Python, Matlab and Octave.
The cxSDK consists of the cxCam and cx3d library.
The cxCam library provides functions for discovering and enumerating connected
devices via the GEV standard as well as the camera configuration, image acquisition
and event handling.
The cx3d library provides functions for intrinsic and extrinsic calibration models to
transform the height images (range maps) from the camera to 3D point cloud images or
rectified images.
For more information about the handling and the integration of the cxSDK, please refer
to the documentation and to various example programs contained in the cxSDK.
