FLIR Camera

Note

This service inherits from the Camera (Base class) base class.

This service operates an FLIR camera. The following are the different types of FLIR cameras that have been tested and used with catkit2 so far:

Teledyne FLIR BFS-U3-63S4M-C

For further documentation, see:

image format control

Note that using FLIR cameras requires a manual installation of drivers from flir.com.
