Strand Camera is low-latency camera acquisition and tracking software. It is useful for 2D tracking of animals, robots, or other moving objects. It also serves as the basis for 3D tracking using Braid.
Braid is multi-camera acquisition and tracking software. It is useful for 3D tracking of animals, robots, or other moving objects. It operates with low latency and is suitable for closed-loop experimental systems such as virtual reality for freely moving animals.
This repository is a mono repository that houses the source code for both pieces of software as well as many other related pieces, mostly written as Rust crates.
Users, as opposed to developers, of this software should refer to the nextgen-camera-users repository which contains user documentation and scripts for interacting with the software and performing data analysis.
