pylon 5.0.12 Camera Software Suite Windows

The pylon 5 Camera Software Suite version 5.0.12 is a software package comprised of an easy-to-use SDK and drivers and tools that you can use to operate any Basler camera using a Windows PC. Thanks to the latest GenICam 3 technology, pylon offers unrestricted access to the latest camera models and features. Basler pylon supports GigE Vision, USB3 Vision, IEEE 1394, Camera Link and the new GenICam GenTL standard version 1.5.

The GenTL standard offers the ability to generically find one or more cameras, address and configure them and then capture images. This means Basler cameras can also be operated with third-party software libraries that support the GenTL standard.

The pylon SDK is user-friendly to help you develop your own camera applications. Just a few lines of code are all that's needed to configure the camera, capture images and save them to the PC's hard drive.

Extensive documentation and a wealth of sample programs for all typical camera applications in all supported programming languages (C, C++, C#, VB.Net, etc.) provide a critical boost to application development.

The programming interface provided by pylon is independent from the camera interface being used, meaning that an application created with pylon can easily be ported to another camera interface technology.

Basler pylon 5 supports all current Windows versions up to Windows 10 (32 and 64-bit). Because pylon supports not just Windows, but also Mac OS X and Linux (x86 and ARM) as well, applications created under pylon for Windows can easily be ported to other operating systems and architectures (such as embedded systems).
