Project description
Media Maker Python SDK
Description
The Media Maker plugin provides a media generation API for Blue Brain BioExplorer.
API
Snapshot
The following example illustrates how to connect to the Blue Brain BioExplorer and export a snapshot of the current view to disk. The snapshot is exported to the /tmp folder, with a resolution of 512x512, and with 16 samples per pixel.
from bioexplorer import BioExplorer
from mediamaker import MovieMaker
bio_explorer = BioExplorer('localhost:5000')
movie_maker = MovieMaker(bio_explorer)
movie_maker.create_snapshot(
path='/tmp/test.png',size=[512, 512], samples_per_pixel=16)
Movie
The following example illustrates how to connect to the Blue Brain BioExplorer and generate a set of frames according to some given camera control points. Frames are exported to the /tmp folder.
from bioexplorer import BioExplorer
from mediamaker import MovieMaker
bio_explorer = BioExplorer('localhost:5000')
movie_maker = MovieMaker(bio_explorer)
control_points = [
{
'apertureRadius': 0.0,
'direction': [0.0, 0.0, -1.0],
'focusDistance': 0.0,
'origin': [0.5, 0.5, 1.5],
'up': [0.0, 1.0, 0.0]
},
{
'apertureRadius': 0.0,
'direction': [-0.482, -0.351, -0.802],
'focusDistance': 0.0,
'origin': [2.020, 1.606, 3.030],
'up': [-0.199, 0.936, -0.289]
}
]
movie_maker.build_camera_path(
control_points=control_points, nb_steps_between_control_points=50,
smoothing_size=50)
movie_maker.set_current_frame(10)
movie_maker.create_movie(
path='/tmp', size=[512, 512], samples_per_pixel=16, start_frame=10, end_frame=20)
