Waggle dance annotator tool

This tool provides a GUI interface to annotate videos with the location, direction, and timing of honey bee waggle dances in an observation hive.

Installation

pip install git+https://github.com/BioroboticsLab/bb_waggledance_annotator.git

Usage

After installation, start a new terminal in order to reload settings. Then you can start the program from a terminal by running:

dance_analysis

By default the tool opens the current directory to select videos for annotation. Optionally the '-p' parameter can be used to specify a directory to open, for example

dance_analysis -p /path/to/directory

See the key mappings and instructions shown in the GUI for how to navigate the videos and mark annotations.
