Start Today

Get started quickly by using the comprehensive TOUCH user interface. It operates both locally and via remote connection. Create your own views or processing results by including your own algorithms or classifications.

Overview

Touch is a thin client offering the Core’s functionality as a graphical user interface. This includes:

  • Camera settings:
  • Integration time (exposure time)
  • Frame rate
  • Gain
  • Averaging
  • Recording:
  • Video mode
  • Single frame mode
  • Hardware trigger mode
  • GPS module (*optional)
  • Setting up references:
  • Dark and white references, distance settings (*ULTRIS only)
  • Live processing:
  • Dark subtraction
  • Reflection
  • Spectral radiance (*if available)
  • Custom algorithms (see [LINK create your own user plugin])
  • Live spectral plots:
  • Point spectrum
  • Area spectrum with standard deviation
  • Multiple selection possible
  • Live classification:
  • Running the perClass MIRA pipeline [LINK mira]
  • Running the perClass Toolbox pipeline [LINK perClass Toolbox]
  • Data export [LINK article EXPORT]

Custom Processing

Add your own algorithms to the processing! Design your own “user plugin” algorithm tree [See Link Tutorial userplugin] and apply it live to your data or batch export your data using that algorithm [See Link EXPORT].
Add perClass MIRA or perClass Toolbox classification pipeline anywhere in the algorithm tree.
The processing will not change the underlying measurement; you can apply multiple algorithms on the same measurement.

Details of Remote Operation

Touch can be used locally, but remote operation (via TCP/IP) is also possible.

  • Data communication is reduced to the absolute minimum; only a subset of data is transmitted.
  • The recorded data resides on the computer where CORE is running.
  • Although Touch only runs on Windows 10 OS, it can communicate with a CORE running on a different operating system.
  • The Touch-Core connection is fault-tolerant. If the connection breaks, Core will continue its tasks while Touch tries to reconnect.

Core (Dedicated Server)

Cubert’s hyperspectral cameras can be controlled either by SDK or by using the dedicated server “Core.” The Core offers a TCP/IP network protocol that can be used either directly (remote SDK) or with the GUI “Touch.”
Core runs autonomously, i.e., it can continue its operation even when the connection to its client (e.g., Touch) is interrupted.
This is also true for the hardware. Core will reconnect a hyperspectral camera if it was disconnected, reconfigure all hardware settings, and continue operation from before the connection loss. Core will even tolerate a power cycle of the camera.
