Cannot get the original ir

Hi, I just found another problem that the ir image shown on the interface is strange. It is not the original ir image. There is a temperature bar that I don’t need, the center temperature point that I would like to hide.. but I cannot found the original image from your code. May I ask how to get the ir image just like the image shown by the FLIR TOOL? Thank you!

Sorry for answering so late. The FLIR tool reads in the temperature information from the EXIF tag in the image. My tool basically just takes an image. If you want to have the image without the overlays, you have 2 options:

  1. Setup the camera using the camera's website (navigate to its IP) or some of its software, which allows you to change the overlays
  2. Simply open the image that my tool records in FLIR tools, it will show it as you expected.

Realistically, you shouldn't use the JPEG that the camera outputs immediately, as it's not the original measurement but a blown-up version (the camera resolution is 320x240 px but the JPG resolution is 640x480). Instead, you should extract the image information from the EXIF tags after taking the picture. My tool just helps with taking the picture. To extract the measurements, use one of the following:

  1. FLIR tools: https://www.flir.com/products/flir-tools/
  2. FLIR Atlas Matlab SDK: Link
  3. Python thermal image extractor: https://github.com/Nervengift/read_thermal.py
