Python 从摄像机录制视频时节省TTL脉冲输入时间

我正在raspberry pi上使用Raspicam录制视频，并使用以下脚本保存视频缓冲区以及每帧的时间戳：

import io
import time
import datetime as dt
from picamera import PiCamera
from threading import Thread, Event
from queue import Queue, Empty
import sys, getopt
import argparse

WIDTH  = 640
HEIGHT = 480
FRAMERATE = 30
VIDEO_STABILIZATION = True
EXPOSURE_MODE = 'night'
BRIGHTNESS = 55
CONTRAST = 50
SHARPNESS = 50
SATURATION = 30
AWB_MODE = 'off'
AWB_GAINS = 1.4

VIDEO_FILE_NAME = "cam3_output_" + str(dt.datetime.now().strftime("%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S")) + ".h264"
TIMESTAMP_FILE_NAME = "cam3_timestamp_" + str(dt.datetime.now().strftime("%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S")) + ".csv"
runningTimeHours, runningTimeMinutes, runningTimeSeconds = 0,0,0

class VideoOutput(Thread):
    def __init__(self, filename):
        super(VideoOutput, self).__init__()
        self._output = io.open(filename, 'wb', buffering=0)
        self._event = Event()
        self._queue = Queue()
        self.start()

    def write(self, buf):
        self._queue.put(buf)
        return len(buf)

    def run(self):
        while not self._event.wait(0):
            try:
                buf = self._queue.get(timeout=0.1)
            except Empty:
                pass
            else:
                self._output.write(buf)
                self._queue.task_done()

    def flush(self):
        self._queue.join()
        self._output.flush()

    def close(self):
        self._event.set()
        self.join()
        self._output.close()

    @property
    def name(self):
        return self._output.name


class TimestampOutput(object):
    def __init__(self, camera, video_filename, timestamp_filename):
        self.camera = camera
        self._video = VideoOutput(video_filename)
        self._timestampFile = timestamp_filename
        self._timestamps = []

    def write(self, buf):
        if self.camera.frame.complete and self.camera.frame.timestamp is not None:
            self._timestamps.append((
                self.camera.frame.timestamp,
                self.camera.dateTime,
                self.camera.clockRealTime
                ))
        return self._video.write(buf)

    def flush(self):
        with io.open(self._timestampFile, 'w') as f:
            f.write('GPU Times, time.time(), clock_realtime\n')
            for entry in self._timestamps:
                f.write('%d,%f,%f\n' % entry)

    def close(self):
        self._video.close()

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument("-hr", "--hours", type=int, help="number of hours to record")
parser.add_argument("-m", "--minutes", type=int, help="number of minutes to record")
parser.add_argument("-s", "--seconds", type=int, help="number of seconds to record")
args = parser.parse_args()


runningTimeHours = float(args.hours)
runningTimeMinutes = float(args.minutes)
runningTimeSeconds = float(args.seconds)

totalRunningTime = runningTimeHours*60*60 + runningTimeMinutes*60 + runningTimeSeconds

with PiCamera(resolution=(WIDTH, HEIGHT), framerate=FRAMERATE) as camera:
    camera.brightness = BRIGHTNESS
    camera.contrast = CONTRAST
    camera.sharpness = SHARPNESS
    camera.video_stabilization = VIDEO_STABILIZATION
    camera.hflip = False
    camera.vflip = False

    #warm-up time to camera to set its initial settings
    time.sleep(2)

    camera.exposure_mode = EXPOSURE_MODE
    camera.awb_mode = AWB_MODE
    camera.awb_gains = AWB_GAINS

    #time to let camera change parameters according to exposure and AWB
    time.sleep(2)

    #switch off the exposure since the camera has been set now 
    camera.exposure_mode = 'off'

    output = TimestampOutput(camera, VIDEO_FILE_NAME, TIMESTAMP_FILE_NAME)
    try:
        camera.start_preview()
        # Construct an instance of our custom output splitter with a filename  and a connected socket
        print('Starting Recording')
        camera.start_recording(output, format='h264')
        print('Started Recording')
        camera.wait_recording(totalRunningTime)
        camera.stop_recording()
        camera.stop_preview()
        print('Recording Stopped')
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        print('Closing Output File')
        sys.exit(2)
    finally:
        output.close()
        print('Output File Closed')

在录制的同时，我向GPIO引脚4发送TTL脉冲。现在我想在上面的脚本中添加一个代码块，以便对于收到的每个TTL HIGH输入，我可以将相应的时间值保存在一个文件中

类似于此，但不涉及摄影机运行脚本：

import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import time

GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
pinTTL = 4

GPIO.setup(pinTTL, GPIO.IN)

while True:
    count = 0
    inputState = GPIO.input(pinTTL)
    if inputState == True:
        print 'HIGH', time.time()

GPIO.cleanup()

上面的pin状态脚本设置为HIGH可保存time.time（）值

基本上我想集成上面提到的两个脚本。我尝试创建另一个线程来节省时间。time（）值根据TTL输入，与保存视频缓冲区的方式相同，但无法使其工作

谢谢你的帮助。

下面的脚本适合我。添加事件回调自动创建一个单独的线程来处理GPIO事件更改。这允许将任何函数作为单独的线程调用，并同时记录TTL时间映射

什么不起作用？我基本上想添加另一个线程，以便在GPIO输入高时将time.time（）值写入文件。您知道如何创建新线程吗？我知道，但无法使其工作
