RealSense Camera Capture

A modular, object-oriented Python application for capturing images from Intel RealSense cameras.

Features

• Capture from both infrared and color cameras
• Toggle laser emitter (for infrared mode)
• Save images with timestamped filenames
• Clean, modular codebase with OOP principles
• Configurable through command-line arguments

Installation

2. Install Python dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

3. (Optional) Install as a package:

   python setup.py install

Usage

Run the infrared camera:
