Description of the graphical user interface
Figure 19: Graphical user interface
The Ranger3 Studio application is part of the Ranger3 SDK (
). You use its graphical user interface (GUI) to configure camera parame‐
ters and evaluate the measurement results. It is also useful when you mount the cam‐
era and laser, and adjust focus and aperture.
The GUI offers different ways to visualize the data. You can also store data to file for
later use. You can change the settings for the camera and instantly see how the
changes affect the measurement result. The GUI is therefore useful for finding the best
parameter settings for a certain application.
Once the camera has been set up to deliver measurement data that meets the require‐
ments, the settings can be saved in a parameter file on the PC.
