Description
We are a technology start-up that manufacture specialised cameras for different industries. Our goal is to replace our existing in-house automated data-collection tool, which is used for production & development of our cameras.

The successful candidate will be supplied with a full in-depth requirements outline including GUI examples and our existing tool. For starters, a high-level illustration of the data flow is included in the attached diagram. The different process steps have been broken down into modules to simplify the description.

Hardware:
A) Camera interface: The tool would interact with cameras through either an Ethernet or Camera-Link interface to send commands and receive images.
B) Peripheral equipment: i.e. controlling light-sources, power supplies temperature chambers.

Software ‘modules’:
1) Handler: Detects camera input and reconstructs image form the bitstream. Manages communication with detector and external devices
2) Processing: Takes images from the handler and applies a prescribed set of manipulations to them. The calculations would be taken from a ‘library’ of processes which could be easily added to, and could be run sequentially or in a specific order e.g. Subtract image A from B to give image B*, Multiply image B* by image C to give B** etc…
3) Automation: Feeds sequences of parameters to the handler in order to acquire multiple sets of images e.g. Set light level to X, take image. Set temperature to Y, take image. Set internal camera parameter to Z, take image. It would also be able to receive data from other modules to effect a simple feedback loop. E.g. step light level & take image -> Repeat until mean brightness > X%.
4) Output: Writes images to a logical folder hierarchy. Displays real-time image feed with the option to display either the raw image, or the processed output being generated from module 2.

A key feature of the tool will be expandability, so we envisage that the ‘modules’ of code are relatively self-contained so that the tool can be expanded or modified.

As a first step, we will be looking to validate the new software tool quickly with a ‘minimum viable product’, demonstrating functionality for one camera and one external power supply with very limited automation, processing and image display steps.

Should this prove successful, we may allocate further funding to develop the full-featured tool.

We require all code to be fully commented and well documented so the software can be maintained and built-upon in future.
