vtkImageExport

Section: Visualization Toolkit Imaging Classes

Usage

vtkImageExport provides a way of exporting image data at the end of a pipeline to a third-party system or to a simple C array. Applications can use this to get direct access to the image data in memory. A callback interface is provided to allow connection of the VTK pipeline to a third-party pipeline. This interface conforms to the interface of vtkImageImport. In Python it is possible to use this class to write the image data into a python string that has been pre-allocated to be the correct size.

To create an instance of class vtkImageExport, simply invoke its constructor as follows

  obj = vtkImageExport
