Hello, first of all, great job doing this library!

Second: is there a way to send config commands to the camera? I am currently usin a PT Mini with Lepton 3.5 and Raspberry Pi. I would like to know if there is a way to set emissivity from flirpy library. Checking the files I only saw something about getting these parameters values.

Thanks in advance, Eduardo

Currently no, because there isn't a straightforward way of sending commands via the PT module (from Python). I think they're sent as UVC extension unit commands? You can retrieve these values easily because they're embedded in images that the camera captures. Sorry about that.

I'm hoping to add support for the module directly, via SPI, in the future.
