GetShot™ is
a Windows-based program that automates Tetracam camera image capture
and storage. The program may be configured by the user to remotely
trigger an ADC or MCA camera via its USB streaming interface at
intervals set by the user. The captured image may then be
retrieved by the host computer and saved to its own hard disk or any
storage location that is accessible by that computer.
GetShot™ is
ideal for situations in which it is desired to remotely trigger a
camera from an unattended computer and then have that computer
distribute images to other networked locations. One example
application might be for a research team capturing time-lapsed images
of the undergrowth in a rain forest for storage on a computer mounted
in the forest canopy. Another would be for capture of images in a
University nursery that would be transferred to a server accessible
from classrooms.
GetShot™
runs on any Windows XP, Vista or Win7 32-bit Operating System.
The program
does not run on Windows 7 64 bit systems nor on systems equipped
with Windows 8 OS. The
program is compatible with every Tetracam multi-spectral imaging
system with the exception of the ADC Micro.
GetShot™ runs
in two modes; one for ADC cameras and one with expanded capabilities
for Mini-MCA cameras (see images showing GUIs below). The program
is interoperable with the entire suite of other Tetracam programs, DLLs
and utilities (see Tetracam Application Software Overview).
GetShot™ features include;
- Trigger and retrieve the last image taken, write the file to any valid path
- Optionally erase the camera after file retrieval
- For MCAs: Getshot can build fully aligned multi-page and single-page TIFs from RAW or DCM file sets prior to storage
- Getshot is also command line or batch file launch-able with arguments to execute any of its functions
