pcrete/zmq_consumer repository overview

⁠ZMQ Video Consumer

ZeroMQ is a high-performance asynchronous messaging library, aimed at use in distributed or concurrent applications. It provides a message queue, but unlike message-oriented middleware, a ZeroMQ system can run without a dedicated message broker. The library's API is designed to resemble Berkeley sockets.

PyZMQ provides python bindings for ØMQ and allows you to leverage ØMQ in python applications. I have been using pyzmq-static with virtualenv as it neatly provides isolated sandbox for my learning.

imageZMQ is a set of Python classes that transport OpenCV images from one computer to another using PyZMQ messaging. For example, here is a screen on a Mac computer showing simultaneous video streams from 8 Raspberry Pi cameras.
