This library defines the C API for the PST. Applications implementing this API get direct access to the PST to receive tracking data and set tracker parameters. Using this library, it is also possible to initialize a shared memory communication pipeline to connect to the PST Client application and initialize a REST server for HTTP-based communication.

Detailed Description

Some functions allocate memory to store objects. These functions will contain alloc or init in their names. As is conventional an alloc should always be paired with a free. If a corresponding free function is defined in this API, this function should be used to release memory, otherwise a normal free should be sufficient. Likewise every init should be paired with a destroy.

Function Documentation

◆ pst_alloc_and_get_last_error_message()

EPstErrorStatus pst_alloc_and_get_last_error_message ( char ** cstring )

This function returns the last error message that was recorded by the system. It will try to allocate memory for and copy the error message in a pointer returned in cstring. It is important that cstring does not point to allocated memory, otherwise a memory leak is introduced. Since memory is allocated for *cstring, ensure that it is freed using pst_free() when it is no longer needed.

Parameters

[out] cstring - Pointer to a pointer to a memory location where the error message is allocated.

Returns: PST_ERROR_STATUS_OK on success or PST_ERROR_STATUS_FAILED_TO_ALLOCATE_MEMORY_ERROR.

See also: pst_free()

Examples: exposure.c, images.c, listener.c, minimal.c, reference.c, restserver.c, sharedmemory.c, and trackingtarget.c.

◆ pst_camera_urls_destroy()

void pst_camera_urls_destroy ( PstUncalibratedCameraURLs * urls )

Destroys PstUncalibratedCameraURLs.

Parameters

[in] urls Object to be destroyed.

Examples: listener.c.

◆ pst_camera_urls_init()

void pst_camera_urls_init ( PstUncalibratedCameraURLs * urls )

Initializes PstUncalibratedCameraURLs.

Parameters

[in] urls Object to be initialized.

Examples: listener.c.

◆ pst_free()

void pst_free ( void * data )

This function should be called on any data that was allocated by the PST SDK and is no longer needed by the user. Use this function instead of the general free() function to prevent memory issues.

Parameters

[in] data Pointer to the memory to be freed.

See also: pst_alloc_and_get_last_error_message(); pst_tracker_alloc_and_get_version_info(); pst_tracker_alloc_and_get_config_path(); pst_tracker_alloc_and_get_supported_framerates(); pst_tracker_alloc_and_get_target_list()

Examples: exposure.c, images.c, listener.c, minimal.c, reference.c, restserver.c, sharedmemory.c, and trackingtarget.c.

◆ pst_image_destroy()

void pst_image_destroy ( PstImage * image )

Destroy function for pst_image

Examples: images.c.

◆ pst_image_init()

void pst_image_init ( PstImage * image )

Initialization function for PstImage

Parameters

[out] image Empty image object to be initialized.

Returns: PST_ERROR_STATUS_OK on success or PST_ERROR_STATUS_NULLPTR_ERROR.

See also: pst_image_destroy(); pst_tracker_get_pst_image()

Examples: images.c.

◆ pst_sdk_disable_rest_server()

void pst_sdk_disable_rest_server ( )

Disable the REST server communication layer. If a REST server is running, the connections will be closed and the REST server will be destroyed. If no REST server is running a call to pst_sdk_disable_rest_server() does nothing.

See also: pst_sdk_enable_rest_server()

Examples: restserver.c.

◆ pst_sdk_disable_shared_memory()

void pst_sdk_disable_shared_memory ( )

Disable the shared memory-based communication layer. The PST-Client application will no longer be able to connect to the PST Tracker.

See also: pst_sdk_enable_shared_memory()

Examples: sharedmemory.c.

◆ pst_sdk_enable_logging()

void pst_sdk_enable_logging ( )

Provides information about the status of the tracker plug-in. Information is written to the standard C output stream stderr. Useful when debugging.

Note: This should be called before creating any initializing a PstTracker with pst_tracker_init(). Calling this afterwards will have no effect.

◆ pst_sdk_enable_rest_server()

EPstErrorStatus pst_sdk_enable_rest_server	(	const char *	server_address,
		const char *	server_port,
		int	event_stream_retry_timeout
	)

Enable a REST Server that uses the HTTP protocol to enable access to the PST Tracker over a local area network. Parameters from the tracker can be accessed using GET requests. Tracking results and image can be streamed using an Event-stream based communication pipeline. The state of the tracker and parameters can be set through POST calls. If a REST server is aleady running, calling pst_sdk_enable_rest_server() will terminate the current server and restart it with the new parameters. More information on how to use the REST server can be found in the REST documentation. If error result PST_ERROR_STATUS_HTTP_ERROR is returned, a possible cause could be an invalid IP address or port number.

Note: A PstTracker must have been initialized before enabling the REST server.

Parameters

[in]	server_address	The IP address on which the REST server should be accessible.
[in]	server_port	The port number on which the REST server should be accessible.
[in]	event_stream_retry_timeout	Timeout in milliseconds before an eventstream attempt to reconnect to the server automatically.

See also: pst_sdk_disable_rest_server()

Returns: PST_ERROR_STATUS_OK on success or PST_ERROR_STATUS_NOT_INITIALIZED_ERROR, PST_ERROR_STATUS_HTTP_ERROR.

Examples: restserver.c.

◆ pst_sdk_enable_shared_memory()

EPstErrorStatus pst_sdk_enable_shared_memory ( )

Enable a shared memory-based communication layer. Enabling shared memory will allow the PST-Client application to connect to the SDK. This will allow receiving tracking data and setting parameters using the PST-Client application. Note that a PST-Client that is connected in this way will not be updated when settings are changed through the SDK. This could cause instabilities in the PST software. It is recommended to only use this function when setting up a PST Tracker (e.g. adding tracking targets or retrieving calibration data). When using a tracker in normal operation, it is recommended to choose to use either the PST-Client application or the SDK and not mix usage.

Note: When using shared memory on Windows the application needs to have elevated access (run as Administrator). When running without elevated access the PST-Client will not be able to connect.; When the shared memory communication pipeline is used to connect the PST-Client application to the SDK, filtering will be disabled upon starting the PST-Client application. To prevent multiple filter passes, filtering should not be re-enabled until the PST-Client application is closed.; A PstTracker must have been initialized before enabling shared memory.

Returns: PST_ERROR_STATUS_OK on success or PST_ERROR_STATUS_NOT_INITIALIZED_ERROR.

See also: pst_sdk_disable_shared_memory(); pst_tracker_enable_filtering(); pst_tracker_enable_tremor_filter()

Examples: sharedmemory.c.

◆ pst_sdk_get_version()

const char* pst_sdk_get_version ( )

Retrieves the SDK version information as a c style string. The SDK version can differ from the internal tracker version which can be retrieved using pst_tracker_alloc_and_get_version_info().

See also: pst_tracker_alloc_and_get_version_info()

◆ pst_sdk_shutdown()

void pst_sdk_shutdown ( )

Fully shutdown the tracking system, disconnecting from the PST Tracker. When the shared memory interface or the REST server have been enabled these will be disabled as well. In order to restart the tracker, a new PstTracker has to be initialized using pst_tracker_init().

See also: pst_tracker_init(); pst_sdk_disable_shared_memory(); pst_sdk_disable_rest_server()

Examples: exposure.c, images.c, listener.c, minimal.c, reference.c, restserver.c, sharedmemory.c, and trackingtarget.c.

◆ pst_target_markers_destroy()

void pst_target_markers_destroy ( PstTargetMarkers * marker_list )

See also: PstTrackerData; pst_tracker_remove_listener()

Examples: exposure.c, images.c, listener.c, minimal.c, reference.c, and trackingtarget.c.

◆ pst_tracker_alloc_and_get_config_path()

EPstErrorStatus pst_tracker_alloc_and_get_config_path	(	const PstTracker *	ctracker,
		char **	config_path
	)

Retrieves the full path to the configuration directory currently being used by the PST Tracker. The default path is "%PROGRAMDATA%\PS-Tech\PST Iris" on Windows or ~/.pstiris on Linux. The configuration directory contains the target model database, server configuration, reference file and tracker calibration information. Memory will be allocated for *config_path. Ensure that it is freed using pst_free() when it is no longer needed.

Parameters

Parameters

[in] ctracker The tracker object.

Returns: PST_ERROR_STATUS_OK on success or PST_ERROR_STATUS_NULLPTR_ERROR.

See also: pst_tracker_enable_image_transfer()

◆ pst_tracker_disable_tremor_filter()

EPstErrorStatus pst_tracker_disable_tremor_filter ( PstTracker * ctracker )

Disables the tremor filter. The tremor filter will no longer be used to filter the estimated target pose.

Parameters

[in] ctracker The tracker object.

Returns: PST_ERROR_STATUS_OK on success or PST_ERROR_STATUS_NULLPTR_ERROR.

See also: pst_tracker_enable_tremor_filter(); pst_tracker_disable_filtering()

◆ pst_tracker_enable_filtering()

EPstErrorStatus pst_tracker_enable_filtering ( PstTracker * ctracker )

Switch on filtering of the tracker results using a double exponential-based prediction filter (DESP). This will result in smoother tracking with less noise. It can have a small impact on tracker accuracy.

Note: When the shared memory communication pipeline is used to connect the PST-Client application to the SDK, filtering will be disabled upon starting the PST-Client application. To prevent multiple filter passes, filtering should not be re-enabled until the PST-Client application is closed.

Parameters

[in] ctracker The tracker object.

Returns: PST_ERROR_STATUS_OK on success or PST_ERROR_STATUS_NULLPTR_ERROR.

See also: pst_tracker_disable_filtering(); pst_tracker_set_position_filter(); pst_tracker_set_orientation_filter(); pst_tracker_enable_tremor_filter(); pst_sdk_enable_shared_memory()

◆ pst_tracker_enable_image_transfer()

EPstErrorStatus pst_tracker_enable_image_transfer ( PstTracker * ctracker )

Enable transferring grayscale image data from the PST Tracker. After enabling image transfer, initialize an PstImage with pst_image_init() and use pst_tracker_get_pst_image() to receive captured images. When no calls are made to pst_tracker_get_pst_image() for more than 4 seconds, image transfer will be automatically disabled. Note that for the standard PST Iris and standard PST Base trackers, enabling image transfer will result in a reduced framerate of 30 fps. The frame rate will be restored to the original setting after image transfer is disabled.

Parameters

[in] ctracker The tracker object.

Returns: PST_ERROR_STATUS_OK on success or PST_ERROR_STATUS_NULLPTR_ERROR.

See also: PstImage; pst_image_init(); pst_image_destroy(); pst_tracker_get_pst_image(); pst_tracker_disable_image_transfer()

Examples: images.c.

◆ pst_tracker_enable_tremor_filter()

EPstErrorStatus pst_tracker_enable_tremor_filter ( PstTracker * ctracker )

Enables the tremor filter. This filter greatly reduces the noise levels of the estimated target pose. However, using the filter introduces latency to the tracking results received and lowers tracking accuracy. This filter is mainly useful when using the PST Tracker in an interaction-type setting. When the PST Tracker is used for measurement purposes, enabling the tremor filter is not recommended.

Note: When the shared memory communication pipeline is used to connect the PST-Client application to the SDK, filtering will be disabled upon starting the PST-Client application. To prevent multiple filter passes, filtering should not be re-enabled until the PST-Client application is closed.

Parameters

[in] ctracker The tracker object.

Returns: PST_ERROR_STATUS_OK on success or PST_ERROR_STATUS_NULLPTR_ERROR.

See also: pst_tracker_disable_tremor_filter(); pst_tracker_enable_filtering()

◆ pst_tracker_get_camera_urls()

EPstErrorStatus pst_tracker_get_camera_urls	(	const PstTracker *	ctracker,
		bool	silent,
		PstUncalibratedCameraURLs *	urls
	)

Check for calibration information of the cameras of the connected PST Tracker. When not all calibration information can be retrieved, download urls for the uncalibrated cameras will be returned. Furthermore, a message will be shown at the command line specifying which files are missing and where they can be downloaded. First initialize the urls with pst_camera_urls_init(). Destroy urls with pst_camera_urls_destroy() before freeing it if necessary.

Parameters

[in]	ctracker	The tracker object for which to request camera urls.

◆ pst_tracker_get_pst_image()

EPstErrorStatus pst_tracker_get_pst_image	(	const PstTracker *	ctracker,
		PstImage *	image
	)

Retrieve images from the PST Tracker when image transfer has been enabled. When image transfer has not been enabled by calling pst_tracker_enable_image_transfer() before calling this method, PstImage.images will be an empty array. Note that image transfer will be automatically disabled when no call to this method is made for 4 seconds.

Note that PstImage.images is a pointer to an array of (likely) more than 1 grayscale images. These pointers could be invalidated by the next call of pst_tracker_get_pst_image(). If the images are still needed after this call, they should be deepcopied.

Make sure to initialize the PstImage with pst_image_init() before using this function. Afterwards the PstImage can be reused. This function will ensure that the data in the PstImage object is properly freed before new data is stored. In case the image retrieval fails PST_ERROR_STATUS_IMAGE_RETRIEVAL_FAILED_ERROR is returned, but PstImage is left untouched. Note that the pointers in the image.images array might still be invalidated.

Parameters

[in]	ctracker	The tracker object.
[out]	image	The image information retrieved from the PST Tracker.

Returns: PST_ERROR_STATUS_OK on success or PST_ERROR_STATUS_NULLPTR_ERROR, PST_ERROR_STATUS_FAILED_TO_ALLOCATE_MEMORY_ERROR, PST_ERROR_STATUS_IMAGE_RETRIEVAL_FAILED_ERROR.
