Separate purchase and password required. Contact us for more information.

This package provides the necessary files, documentation and tools to build and develop applications for all Lumenera USB-based and Ethernet products. New C# and .NET Visual Basic samples have been added to the C++ samples library. Camera device driver files are not included with the SDK package. The Lumenera Application Programmer Interface (API) is a common set of tools and camera controls that is easy-to-learn. It allows you to develop an application for one camera model and then easily integrate other camera models as needed. The same interface is used for all Windows operating systems and supports both 32 and 64-bit environments. Offering the ability to stream raw, compressed or filtered image data, the Lumenera Camera SDK can control how and where to send video or snapshot image streams. You can stream to a window created by the API or to one under your own application’s control, and/or stream directly to an AVI file. The API also provides the ability to add your own callback functions to the image data streams for inline processing and can signal event structures to notify you of changes in I/O activity or camera disconnects. Consult the Lumenera Cameras SDK Release Notes for the complete summary of additions and improvements available in this release.
