Can 32-bit applications communicate with cameras on 64-bit operating systems?

Last Revision Date: 3/28/2016

Applications built using the 32-bit versions of the following SDKs:

• • Spinnaker SDK (all versions)
  • FlyCapture SDK (version 1.8.1.13 and newer)
  • Ladybug SDK (version 1.4.0.1 and newer

are able to communicate with cameras that run on 64-bit operating systems.

Applications built using the earlier 32-bit versions of FlyCapture and Ladybug SDKs do not communicate with cameras that run on 64-bit operating systems. In order for those 32-bit application to run successfully on a 64-bit system, the application must be rebuilt and compiled using the 64-bit libraries of these SDKs.

We support and recommend compiling 64-bit applications with Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 or later.
