From e16d36128bc392f5aec2a03873a53fda5d320f60 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: yair Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2025 18:27:06 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Optimize recv_raw_rolling.py: NumPy indexing, display throttling, and MJPEG recording - Replace cv2.rotate() with NumPy array indexing for 2x+ speedup - Add --display-fps argument to throttle display refresh while capturing all UDP frames - Add --save-mjpeg argument to record rolling display to MJPEG video - Fix display throttling to capture all frames while only refreshing display at specified rate - Performance: ~300 FPS no-display, ~100 FPS full display, 150-250+ FPS with throttling --- scripts/recv_raw_rolling.py | 78 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------- 1 file changed, 57 insertions(+), 21 deletions(-) diff --git a/scripts/recv_raw_rolling.py b/scripts/recv_raw_rolling.py index cdb31fd..bc82827 100644 --- a/scripts/recv_raw_rolling.py +++ b/scripts/recv_raw_rolling.py @@ -24,8 +24,12 @@ from collections import deque # Parse command-line arguments parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='Receive raw column stream via UDP') -parser.add_argument('--no-display', action='store_true', +parser.add_argument('--no-display', action='store_true', help='Disable OpenCV display for maximum performance (stats only)') +parser.add_argument('--display-fps', type=int, default=0, + help='Limit display refresh rate (0=every frame, 60=60fps, etc).
