Hi Sébastien,

Nice repo.

Have you tested what is the maximum framerate for the SLM of your code?

Best, Guangyuan

Hi, Actually, from the computer point of view, the SLM is just a display monitor using DVI or HDMI, so there is no uploading per say. It is usually limited to 50/60 Hz (depending on your device). So it is not really dependent on pySLM. However, the fact that you can send image at 50-60 Hz does not mean that the SLM can follow, the rising time can be smaller. Again, not dependent on pySLM but on your specific hardware.

Sure. Thank you.

I will test the speed in the future if I get the time.

Best, Guangyuan
