The libseek-thermal library has a few options to control the camera: colour map (OpenCV: 1 .. 20), rotate image, create/use flat field image, resize image and create a v4l2 video stream. In order to optimize the picture quality (contrast) we have to create optimized colour maps. There is no option for brightness, contrast, shutter control, temperature range a.s.o. Those features are probably only available in the camera firmware (hardware).

The Compact and Compact Pro cameras recalibrating every few seconds, which means the image freezes for a moment.
