content: Hello everyone, this is my first post here.My name is Rune Hansen and I’m an electronics engineer from Denmark with a lot of experience in designing embedded systems, power electronics, all kinds of analog electronics and programming (embedded and software).For a long time, I have needed a solution for thermal imaging/analysis for general use, but mainly for inspection, characterization and monitoring of thermal profiles when designing high efficiency power electronics or any kind of temperature sensitive electronics.The main problem, as you might know, is the huge price on thermal cameras and the additional price for the associated windows software. Especially if you want a FLIR camera!I needed a cheaper solution, without spending +15K dollars on a camera and software, but I quickly learned that there wasn’t really a good “hobby” level solution for high quality thermal imaging with a good usable windows software…I came across a company called InfiRay, which mainly makes cameras for hunting, but then also sells a series of consumer smartphone cameras. Their smartphone cameras have some amazing specs, but I wasn’t fan of the android app and having to use my phone every time.I needed something with a windows software!!!A lot of searching on the internet gave no results (for a dedicated InfiRay windows software or a thirs party), so I bought the InfiRay T3S camera to test its performance and I must say that it is an amazing camera. The only thing missing was a good windows software.I tried connecting the camera to my computer and what do you know… the computer registered the camera as a standard webcam.From that day on I decided to start my next project, which was writing my own software for the camera and OH MAN it has been a challenge… went into this with little knowledge on thermal imaging.Even better, I couldn’t find any information about the camera anywhere, but I notices in the bottom of the image there was a lot of image meta data. So, I decided to figure out was the data meant.I’m getting tired of writing this, so after 3 month of reverse engineering and trying to understand the data coming from the camera – and a loooooooooooottt of long nights of coding test code and reading into thermographic theory and image processing I finally finished a windows software application for the Infiray thermal cameras.Application Features include (For version 2.0 and above):- Full Frame Temperature data- Max/Min Temperature Tracking.- Center temperature- up to 5 Point temperature measurements.- 3D surface Plot- Full Screen Mode (External windows for live view and 3D surface plot)- A LOT of standard and custom colot palettes.- Region of Interest Box analysis.- Temperature measurements plotAnd much more...Supported Cameras, As of version 3.7.2:- InfiRay DV-DL13- InfiRay T2S+- InfiRay T2L- InfiRay T2Pro- InfiRay T3-Search- InfiRay T3S- InfiRay T3Pro- HTI HT-301Hope you guys like itIt has been quite some work!Below are some pics of the applicationI havent really used forums before and i most most Certainly will forget to check for replies.So if you want to talk or get the software and see the features for the newest versions of the software, Please join the discord server "DIY Thermal Imaging":https://discord.gg/3zq3zXFA8BOn discord i will share the software and you guys can contact me if you find any faults, errors or have any problems with the application

content: Big cadeau for your work Rune, and happy to hear that T2L are being implementedInfiray T2L seems like a decent midrange dongle in the 256x192 microbolometer segment.It's not that expensive.. at around 250 USD with incl. EU VAT and shipping (BG) and the T2L seem to have a manual focus.. - makes a big difference if you wanna use it for a lot of different use cases, and the T2L seems to deliver a tad cleaner picture' than the newer & more expensive T2S plus.. likely because the T2L is focused on a smaller temperature span.My biggest concern with these dongles is the app.. which seemed to leave a lot to be desired for these Infiray-dongles, and not least for the 2-series (256x192) that appears to be even more app-limited than the 3-series (384x288) and I'm not even sure you can lock a given range temperature span..

content: Great work on this softwareWould there be a possibility of support of the Infiray P2 as that is, I think, very similar to the T2 series in terms of host software. I have the SDK that I am happy to send to youThe T2 series contain the Infiray S0 core and the P2 series contains the smaller Tiny1-b core.I will send you a link to the SDK on my Google Drive by PM in case it is of interest or you can see how similar/dissimilar it is to that of the T2 series S0 core support.Best WishesFraser

content: Very interesting piece of software!I bought Doogee S98Pro just for infrared feature, but sadly, built-in app does not save IR and Photo separately, like Flir does. But the resolution and framerate and precision of this sensor is far better than my work's Flir C5. And also, i get all the features of an android phone. Also, this phone is so heavy that i came up with saying "guns don't kill people - rugged smartphones do".So, I decided to register for discord, just to get access to discussion about this software, but immediately after signing up, confirming e-mail, confirming phone number, my account was disabled for violation or abuse. Some time will pass until support sorts that out, hopefully.Important question - can your application be used for "splitting" combined image into visible and infrared?

content: Sorry for a looooong pause.Yes, it does capture an image that includes everything - rgb image, radiometric data and even misc. data like serial number and so on. I can change palettes and save image later, but the app makes it a pain, as it overwrites original image.Hopefully, my attached image is not ruined by site built-in compression. Edit-it got ruined and recompressed from 1.7MB to 122kb.Videos do contain sound from microphone.I can also manually set some parameters like ambient temperature and emissivity coefficient.

content: A little off-topic so advance apologies to the OP of this thread.I see a name from the EEVBlog forum past mentioned here…… “Clean-Unbox” and his Discord. Is anyone here a member of that Discord who can describe what it’s purpose is ? Is it just a path for Clean-Unbox to sell Infiray Cameras or is there useful discussion of Infiray cameras and 3rd party software taking place ? It was a pity that Clean-Unbox was banned from this forum during the great “Infiray Purge” as he might have been a good contributor to Infiray discussions. He appears to be quite closely linked to Infiray and its products despite living in far off Peru ! Does he ban anyone who is negative about Infiray products ? If so, that is a pity as all products need balanced commentary to assist potential buyers in making a purchase decision. No product is perfect.Again, sorry to go off-topic but Clean Unbox rarely gets a mention on this forum and my question is not worthy of a new thread to itself.Fraser

Sure, there are chatting allowed and some offtopics, but both have dedicated infiray threads.In case of RuneHansen it's his software from windows store. In case of CleanUnbox it's infiray from aliexpress.Method is pretty simple (CleanUnbox):* you do an order via referal link* don't pay it (he says it clearly, "keep unpaid")* ping CleanUnbox* he contact infiray* you getting additional discount* you pay your orderAbout the bans.. well, RuneHansen must justify what was stolen and how. CleanUnbox.. idk guess he need to justify nothing cause he aren't there. Guess he was raging because of 2 reasons:* because of "x2 guy" (me writing about issues i have)* because of linking eevblog forum which he explicitly told be not to ref.So, RuneHansen, what was stolen?

content: Many thanks Nikitasius,I wondered how the buying process worked with clean Unbox living in Peru. Infiray told me that they knew of his YouTube channel but had no official connection with him. That sounds odd if he arranges a buyer discount with Infiray direct. I suppose he acts as their commissioned salesman without carrying any actual stock. The modern way to do business maybe ? I suspect that this is the reason Dave banned him….. too closely connected to Infiray HQ. And yes, he hates Dave L Jones, EEVBlog forum and even meand I did nothing but be friendly towards him !OK, back to the topic of this thread and the software from RuneHansen……..

Working in the field that I do, requires that costumers, clients and employers can trust that project information of any kind, is kept secure and that employees can be trusted to uphold related project NDAs of any kind.I don’t want any association with leaked information on my discord, that could put my credibility into question on how I secure client project information, documentation and data.

content: No… the first version of the software (The one you refer to as: "The nice software until one night..." and the one showed in this post) was an application written in MATLAB app designer.I decided to scrap the MATLAB version and program a “real” modern C/C++ software with the same and more features.The MATLAB version had very slow performance, slow video rendering, slow startup, slow connection, slow everything and needed a specific version of python to function (which A LOT of people had trouble getting to work correctly). The MATLAB version also had a size of Gigabytes, because of the large MATLAB runtime (which is very slow), which resulted in a very large RAM usage – making it unusable on medium spec computers (4GB RAM PCs and single board computers was a NOPE).At the time, where I decided to scrap the MATLAB version, was also the time where my MATLAB license ran out, and I didn’t really want to spend 1500$ (or spend a lot of money on monthly subscriptions) for MATLAB & Simulink + all of the different packages I needed to keep the MATLAB version running.One of the most frustrating things about the MATLAB version was that, from one update to another, they could completely change how many parts of different build-in functions work – breaking the MATLAB version of the software everytime a new MATLAB update was released.The MATLAB version was a fun and quick way to make a simple application like this, but it was very slow and very far from a professional software and only high-end computers could run it well.The MATLAB version was free for this reason.If I gave you the MATLAB version of the software today, you wouldn’t be able to run it, because it was written to support a version of python that MATLAB no longer supports + a ton of other different MATLAB faults from newer MATLAB updates. So, the MATLAB version is scrap.I have not used EEVBlog for “idea” hunting.All suggestions and interesting related software features have come directly from the many user suggestions from my discord channel.At the moment I don’t plan on making a limited free version, but if it is something that people want, I would be happy to make such a version.

content: Limited options free version is always a good selling point for the commercial software.You could a a version with limits like no video, maybe 128x92 downsampling of any data before you work on it, just average the fields.256x192 seems to be a defecto minimum standard today, and with that low a resolution people can test, but can't really use it commercially.
