This is a code example demonstrating FLIR Boson camera command and control using Boson SDK commands. It's written for interface with a Linux system and performs the following commands in sequential order:
- Connects to the camera
- Reads and displays the Camera Serial Number
- Reads and changes the bit depth of the output
- Reads and displays the current Software Revision of the Camera
- Reads and displays the Sensor Part Number
- Reads data from the Camera Flash
- Gets the current Frame Count
- Changes the FFCMode to Manual, then back again
- Performs a manual FFC
First, compile the UART wrapper by nagivating to the ./EmulatorFiles/ directory and running
make
Then go to the ./ClientFiles_C/ folder and run
gcc Client_API.c Client_Dispatcher.c Client_Packager.c example_linux.c Serializer_BuiltIn.c Serializer_Struct.c UART_Connector.c ../EmulatorFiles/UART_HalfDuplex64.so -o example_linux
Run example_linux in the ClientFiles_C directory after compiling.
./example_linux
This was built on tested with Boson SDK rev 2.0.5. 2.0.5 is included, but the latest SDK can be found at https://www.flir.com/support/products/boson#Resources
