# GIF Video Recording Example # # Note: You will need an SD card to run this example. # # You can use your OpenMV Cam to record gif files. You can either feed the # recorder object RGB565 frames or Grayscale frames. Use photo editing software # like GIMP to compress and optimize the Gif before uploading it to the web. import sensor, image, time, gif, pyb RED_LED_PIN = 1 BLUE_LED_PIN = 3 sensor.reset() # Initialize the camera sensor. sensor.set_pixformat(sensor.RGB565) # or sensor.GRAYSCALE sensor.set_framesize(sensor.QQVGA) # or sensor.QVGA (or others) sensor.skip_frames(time = 2000) # Let new settings take affect. clock = time.clock() # Tracks FPS. pyb.LED(RED_LED_PIN).on() sensor.skip_frames(time = 2000) # Give the user time to get ready. pyb.LED(RED_LED_PIN).off() pyb.LED(BLUE_LED_PIN).on() g = gif.Gif("example.gif", loop=True) print("You're on camera!") for i in range(100): clock.tick() # clock.avg() returns the milliseconds between frames - gif delay is in g.add_frame(sensor.snapshot(), delay=int(clock.avg()/10)) # centiseconds. print(clock.fps()) g.close() pyb.LED(BLUE_LED_PIN).off() print("Done!
