Spinnaker

   
Summary: Device Adapter for FLIR cameras that use the Spinnaker interface
Available since: 2019

The Spinnaker device adapter was created by CAIRN.

Installation

For Micro-Manager versions prior to 2021-03-08, download and install the Spinnaker driver from the CAIRN website. For later Micro-Manager versions (both 1.4 and 2.0-gamma builds), download and install a Spinnaker V2 driver that supports VS2010 (currently, v2.0, 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3; 2.3 is recommended). UPDATE: though it was expected that Micro-Manager would work with all version 2 of Spinnaker, this does not appear to be the case. Use version 2.3.0.77, which is available in the Spinnaker archive.

Follow the instructions in this pdf on the CAIRN website. Note that it is not needed to download 2.0-beta3-20181129, newer versions of Micro-Manager (1.4 and 2.0) work as well, and already include the file mmgr_dal_Spinnaker.dll.

RGB8 mode results in RGB images as of build 2021-03-08. BGRa8 mode (preferred for RGB if your camera has it) is supported as of 2021-03-09.
