Connect SDK vs. Direct SDK ‒ Technical Note

Connect SDK

This SDK offers a very wide range of functions. The PIX Connect software needs to run as background process.
The Connect-SDK is part of the scope of delivery of the optris Xi and PI.

Supported Operating Systems: Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7, 8 and 10

Direct SDK

This SDK does not require the PIX Connect software to be run.
The library “libirimager” provides a C++ interface for Linux and Windows. Interfaces for LabVIEW and MATLAB are included in the SDK.
Supported operating systems: Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7, 8 and 10 / Linux

You can download the Direct SDK free of charge from the website: https://www.evocortex.org/downloads

Please direct your support queries to Direct-SDK@optris.com.

A sample program for the Direct SDK with an Optris camera (PI or Xi) can be downloaded here:

Alternatively you can use MATLAB or LabVIEW in a communication mode via virtual com ports. We produced a video that describes the use of a virtual com port installation program based on a simple application example.

ROS interface for the Direct SDK

Optris’ thermal imaging cameras can be integrated into an ROS middleware for the above architectures. Wrappers for the previous version (ROS fuerte to ROS jade) and the latest version (ROS kinetic and upwards) can be found here: http://wiki.ros.org/optris_drivers

Software for data acquisition

The company CAD Computer offers software for data acquisition and drivers for the integration of our optris PI series.
