Pure-Python driver for FLIR® thermal cameras over GigE Vision. No vendor SDK required: pyFlir speaks the GVCP and GVSP protocols directly over UDP.

It builds on pyGigEVision for the GigE Vision protocol layer and adds the FLIR-specific calibration, registers, and GenICam XML support.

Tested on the FLIR A6751sc (MWIR). Other FLIR GigE Vision cameras that expose a standard GenICam XML should work.

Installation

pip install pyFlir

Quick start

from pyflir import Camera

with Camera() as cam:
    cam.download_xml()              # once; saves camera_<serial>.xml
    cam.load_xml("camera_xxx.xml")
    cam.frame_rate  = 30.0          # Hz
    cam.exposure_ms = 8.0           # ms
    frame = cam.grab()              # numpy array (H, W), uint16
