Enable IR and its adjustments function

Using the SetOptionValue() function of the API, you can set various control values for the current open device.

Enabling IR is setting Option::IR_CONTROL greater than 0. The greater the value, the greater the IR’s intensity.

Attention

  • mynteye s2100/s210a doesn’t support this feature.

Reference Code:

auto &&api = API::Create(argc, argv);

// Detect infrared add-ons
LOG(INFO) << "Support infrared: " << std::boolalpha
          << api->Supports(AddOns::INFRARED);
LOG(INFO) << "Support infrared2: " << std::boolalpha
          << api->Supports(AddOns::INFRARED2);

// Get infrared intensity range
auto &&info = api->GetOptionInfo(Option::IR_CONTROL);
LOG(INFO) << Option::IR_CONTROL << ": {" << info << "}";

// Set infrared intensity value
api->SetOptionValue(Option::IR_CONTROL, 80);

At this point, if the image is displayed, you can see IR speckle on the image, as below:

Attention

The hardware will not record the IR value after being turned off. In order to keep IR enabled, you must set the IR value after turning on the device.
