Imaging Source Recorder

A Qt-desktop app for recording from an Imaging Source Camera. Based on the PySide6 demoapp, licensed with the APACHE license.

Design goals

• Provide desktop app to manually start/stop triggered recordings from Imaging Source Cameras
• Allow starting/stopping of recordings with a given filename via REST API
• Add metadata to recordings
• Add retreiving last recorded files via HTTP
• Specify metadata schema

Execute the GUI with uv

uvx --from git+https://github.com/brain-bremen/imaging-source-recorder imaging-source-recorder-gui

Test REST API

While the GUI is running, go to http://localhost:8000/docs to explore the API.
