(Figure 4). Camera manufacturers also
supply a variety of software products to
ease integration tasks. For example, the
FLIR A325 comes with three packages that
run on a PC controller:
IP Conguration utility – nds cameras •
on the network and congures them
IR Monitor – displays images and •
temperature data on up to nine
cameras simultaneously
AXXX Control and Image interface •
– low-level descriptions of how to
communicate with the camera,
including image formats and C-code
examples
In addition, optional software developer
toolkits are available (FLIR SDK, LabVIEW
SDK, Active GigE SDK from A&B Software,
etc.) for those creating source code for
custom applications within programming
environments such as Visual Basic, C++,
Delphi, etc. However, the strength of
a camera like the A325 is its ability to
interface with third party software that
eliminates or minimizes the need to
write source code. For example, National
Instrument’s Vision Builder for Automated
Inspection is a congurable package for
building, benchmarking, and deploying
machine vision applications (Figure
5). It does not require the user to write
program code. A built-in deployment
interface facilitates system installation
