This reporitory was created to test the PureThermal 1 with C++ programming. The code was based on:
The PureThermal 1 FLIR Lepton development board by GroupGets supports the USB video class (UVC), and this makes it very easy to capture thermal imaging data from a host PC using standard tools and libraries. If you want to prototype quickly, your application demands increasing processing power, or you simply don't want to hack on the firmware, check out these examples to get started.
This example is a simplification of the uvc-radiometry.py
This example uses ctypes to hook into libuvc and circumvents the troubles associated with using OS camera
capture drivers, particularly on Mac OS X, whose standard capture drivers do not support the Y16 data type
for grabbing raw sensor data.
This example leverages the Radiometric Lepton 2.5. The same approach can of course modified to support other Leptons as well.
You'll need the modified version of libuvc from groupgets/libuvc.
git clone https://github.com/groupgets/libuvc
cd libuvc
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make && sudo make install
If you don't want to install this system-wide, you can copy the shared library to your working directory.
Then run the example:
./uvc-radiometry_mod.py
