Abstract: PymePix is a new Python 3 library that provides control and acquisition for the Timepix3-SPIDR hardware. The rich set of data-structures and intuitive routines reduces time and coding effort to quickly configure, acquire, and visualize data from Timepix3. The highly extensible high-performance data-pipeline allows for alteration of the Timepix3 datastream into a form that is convinient for the user. This library is intended to be easily inserted into a standard scientific software stack as well as to allow for more direct interaction of Timepix3 with interactive flavors of Python. Included with the library are two example programs using PymePix : PymePix-acq is a command line control and acquisition program that can capture UDP packets and decode them into pixels and triggers. The second is pymepixviewer , an online control and data-acquisition program for general use, but with features geared toward mass-spectroscopy and ion imaging.
