I guess all the fields above can be decided after we have some discussions?

Let all users of the Thorlabs inspection cameras, and ask everybody to contribute to the feature description.

@ieivanov [describe model of the camera]

[AhmetCanSolak]

Is there a need for any DCx Series thorlabs cameras? @xiyuyi @ieivanov (please tag anyone else that might be related)

Apparently thorlabs SDK is different for DCx Series cameras, if we don't see any immediate need for those we can start with thorlabs SDK for scientific cameras. Also, could you clarify if you are using these cameras with WindowsOS all the time or using it with Linux too?

[ieivanov]

We have a Thorlabs Zelux CS165CU1 camera, but we don't use it often, and it's not critical to have an interface for it. But it seems like Xiyu is using a similar model.

[xiyuyi]

Ivan is right. @ieivanov @AhmetCanSolak . And it is not critical to have an interface for it on my end as well.

[AhmetCanSolak]

@xiyuyi , the inspection cameras you use are not DCx Series then? am I understanding you correct?

Also for @ieivanov , what's the use you have for the Thorlabs Zelux CS165CU1 that you have? do you have other models of thorlabs cameras that you and your team use?

[ieivanov]

Right now we don't use our CS165CU1 camera. We do have other Thorlabs cameras as well, but it's even more unlikely that we'll use them for anything that will need copylot control
