CAS and CAS GUI

CAS GUI is a framework for building graphical user interfaces in Python, specifically for applications that involve acquiring, processing and displaying images from cameras or camera-type systems.

It consists of CAS, a hardware abstraction layer for cameras, and the GUI itself.

The project is hosted on github. Bug reports, contributions and pull requests are welcome.

Exampls of simple GUIs created using CAS are available on github.
