pylon Camera Software Suite

Faster results through simplicity

The simple structure of the pylon APIs lets users focus on the application itself during the development instead of having to deal with complicated camera connection issues.

Easy to learn

With the easy-to-learn pylon APIs, and the context-related developer documentation that can be accessed directly from the pylon viewer, even pylon beginners can become productive right away.

60% less programming code

Compared to the APIs from other providers, applications developed with pylon APIs require only about 40% of the programming code for the same functions. This also helps increase the stability and robustness of your applications.

More stability, fewer causes of failure

Thanks to the reduced programming scope and the simplicity of developing your own application, the search for errors is also greatly simplified. Many potential causes of failure are completely avoided from the start.

Easy development of embedded applications

With the pylon APIs, the target platform of the developed application does not play a role anymore. It is very easy to switch from a Windows environment to a Linux ARM environment without major code changes. This makes pylon perfectly suitable for easy development of embedded systems.

pylon for medical and life sciences

The Color Calibration Tool, a function of the pylon viewer, allows easy calibration of the colors of Basler MED ace cameras for medical and life science purposes.

You need only one software for all Basler MED ace cameras.

pylon for 3D Vision

With pylon and the additional pylon supplementary package, also the Basler 3D cameras can be operated and configured. With the included blaze Viewer, the 3D image data can be optimally visualized. This allows you to efficiently use the advantages of pylon in the 2D and 3D world with just one API.
