Ignition Rendering

API Reference

5.1.0
ThermalCamera Class Referenceabstract

Thermal camera that produces temperature data. An object's temperature can be set through the Visual class using SetUserData with the key "temperature". Ambient temperature is returned for object that do not have this property set. Note that temperature variations for the environment and objects can be set using the Set*Range functions in this class. For simplicity, the variations are modeled as a function of depth (which is not how a real thermal sensor works). Ideally we support heatmaps for visuals in order to produce more realistic temperature output. More...

Detailed Description

Thermal camera that produces temperature data. An object's temperature can be set through the Visual class using SetUserData with the key "temperature". Ambient temperature is returned for object that do not have this property set. Note that temperature variations for the environment and objects can be set using the Set*Range functions in this class. For simplicity, the variations are modeled as a function of depth (which is not how a real thermal sensor works). Ideally we support heatmaps for visuals in order to produce more realistic temperature output.
