A Python Toolkit for Infrared Image Processing and Analysis

InfraPy is a modular and extensible Python library for infrared imaging. It offers a clean architecture for processing, analyzing, and visualizing infrared data, making it ideal for research, engineering, and diagnostic applications. Whether you're exploring temperature distributions, performing thermographic inspections, or conducting advanced techniques like Thermoelastic Stress Analysis (TSA), InfraPy provides the tools and flexibility to streamline your infrared imaging workflows.

Features

Flexible input support: image stacks, video files, NumPy arrays, CSV, but also .sfmov and .hcc data directly from FLIR and Telops cameras
Temperature tools: emissivity correction, radiometric-to-temperature conversion
Frequency-domain analysis: Thermoelastic Stress Analysis via FFT and lock-in correlation analysis
Visualization: ROI monitoring, line profiles, area averages, video animation
Utility tools: windowing, unit conversion, SNR calculation, resampling, basic image processing
Modular design: clean architecture to support GUI/CLI integration and future analysis modules

Installation

Install via pip will be soon available on PyPI as:

.. code-block:: bash

pip install infrapy

In the meantime, install it from source:

.. code-block:: bash

git clone https://github.com/LolloCappo/infrapy.git
cd infrapy
pip install -e .

Planned Extensions

Time-domain analysis: Classic thermography and temperature accumulation analysis
Modular design: Cleaner architecture to support GUI/CLI integration and future analysis modules

Getting Started

Coming soon: example notebooks in the examples/ folder for:

Loading and displaying IR image sequences
Performing lock-in thermoelastic analysis
Monitoring temperature in selected ROIs
Filtering and normalizing noisy thermal data
Frequency-domain visualization of thermal responses
