Project Splinescan
QUICKLINKS: SNIPPETS:

GOING TO PYTHON
The splinescan project is being redesigned from the ground up using PYTHON. I tried experimenting with C but in the end, the programming started to overtake the project, and was becoming inaccessible. Python is an interpreted language, runs on most platforms, is easy to learn and is ideally suited to the scanner project.

V4L
The capture system uses streamer to gather data - While V4L programming was ok to do, there is very little need to reinvent the wheel and streamer does exactly what the project needs it to do.
