===========
PlenoptiCam
===========
.. A light field photography application (macOS_ or Win_) for computational change of perspective view and synthetic focus based on a Standard Plenoptic Camera (SPC).

Description
===========

*PlenoptiCam* comes as a cross-platform, open-source software (see `releases page `_) for scientific light field computation with few dependencies and a lean graphical user interface.
Raw exposures from a plenoptic camera require four-dimensional image alignment in order to be decoded as a light field. Provided software addresses this by its ability to calibrate an image taken by a plenoptic camera and extract sub-aperture images or synthetically focused photographs.
This application is meant for researchers, developers, beginners and other fiddlers who like to experiment with light field technology. Its scope comprises custom-types of plenoptic cameras and is thus not limited to Lytro's image data.

Installation
============

* executable:
1. download a bundled app found at the `releases page `_
2. run installer / extract archive
3. work around |WinExeDoc|_ or |MacAppDoc|_ issue
- macOS Big Sur requires to set ``$ xattr -c /Applications/plenopticam.app`` (|BigSurDoc|_)
4. run executable (may take a while on first start-up)
5. user interface will show up (see below)

|

* via pip:
1. install with ``$ python3 -m pip install plenopticam``
2. type ``$ plenopticam -g`` to the command line once installation finished

|

* from source:
1. install Python from https://www.python.org/
2. download the source_ using ``$ git clone https://github.com/hahnec/plenopticam.git``
3. go to the root directory ``$ cd plenopticam``
4. load other packages ``$ python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt``
5. install with ``$ sudo python3 setup.py install`` from root directory
6. if installation ran smoothly, enter ``$ sudo plenopticam -g`` to the command line

Usage
=====

Application
-----------

|gui|

.. |gui| raw:: html



.. note::
"Pick folder" checkbox is useful to point to a directory containing calibration archive files of Lytro Illum cameras.
In such case, the white image calibration file corresponding to the Lytro Illum image is found automatically.

|

0. Download a dataset if you don't call a plenoptic camera your own, e.g.:
- |OpEx|_
- |INRIA|_

|

1. Choose your light field photograph using upper **Browse** button. Supported file types are:
- *bmp*, *jpg* or *png* file from custom-built plenoptic camera
- *lfr*, *lfp* and *raw* files from Lytro Illum

|

2. Choose calibration source data using lower **Browse** button. Supported file types are:
- *bmp*, *jpg* or *png* file from custom-built plenoptic camera
- *caldata-XXX.tar* archive or respective *raw* file from Lytro Illum
- tick "Pick folder" and point to a directory containing all *tar* files or extracted folders (calibration file will be found automatically)

.. note::
If you are `using your own Lytro Illum `__ camera, you first need to extract camera calibration data as a *tar*-archive. To do so, please follow the `instructions guide `__.

|

3. Adjust configuration using **Settings** button:
- *Micro image patch size*: default is estimated maximum
- *Refocusing range*: range for shift and sum synthesis
- *Force re-calibration*: option to re-run calibration
- *Automatic white balance*: option for white balancing
- *Refocus refinement*: option for sub-pixel precise refocusing
- *Scheimpflug*: option to mimic tilted sensor

|

4. Press **Process** to start the computation.

|

Command Line
------------

For computing a stack of light-field images, it may be convenient to iterate through them. This can be done by:

``$ sudo plenopticam -f '/Users/../Folder/' -c 'Users/../caldata-B5144000XXX.tar'``

with necessary write privileges on Unix Systems. A Windows-equivalent command would be as follows:

``plenopticam --file="C:\\..\\Folder\\" --cali="C:\\..\\caldata-B5144000XXX.tar"``

More information on optional arguments can be found using the help parameter

``plenopticam -h``

Results can be found inside a folder named after your light field file which is located in the same directory path.
Depending on provided files and settings, your results folder may contain the following data:

- sub-aperture images (see *viewpoints_xxx* folder) and view animation given as gif
- refocused images (see *refo_xxx* folder) and refocus animation given as gif
- depth map given as pfm and ply file
- raw image file given as tiff
- aligned light field as pkl (pickle) file
- light field metadata as json file (for Lytro files only)
- scheimpflug focus files

API usage
---------

Usage of PlenoptiCam modules is demonstrated in the following Jupyter notebooks:

`1. Calibration Demo `__

`2. Alignment Demo `__

`3. Extraction Demo `__

`4. Lytro Illum Demo `__
