Integrated software development kit for zoom camera

07 August 2024

The ImageIR 6300 Z zoom infrared camera from InfraTec GmbH is smaller, lighter, does not require any time‐consuming lens changes — and now also boasts an integrated Software Development Kit (SDK). With technical features such as the 7.5 time zoom lens with motor focus (built in as standard) and its compact size, the radiometrically calibrated zoom camera was already a force to be reckoned with.

Now it is taking things to the next level: with the ImageIR 6300 Z, a new generation of electronics is entering the field of thermography, allowing an operating system to be embedded directly in the camera (embedded system). In addition to the well‐known benefits of an SDK, the integrated system opens up numerous other possibilities for users:

  • Independent operation of the camera without PC
  • Automated control of camera functions with the aid of the integrated SDK
  • Implementation of evaluation algorithms and camera control based on these algorithms directly in the camera

These SDK functions make it possible to let the thermography camera run autonomously. If programmed appropriately, the camera no longer requires a permanent, stable network connection to a PC. This makes it ideal for use in hard‐to‐reach places and facilitates integration into and adaptation to existing systems.

The new integrated SDK was developed and optimized by InfraTec in collaboration with customers from industrial and research environments.
