JAI provides several types of control software and development kits to support JAI cameras. For new customers, the latest recommended version can always be found on the Downloads page or in the Downloads tab of the product page associated with a specific model.
The tables below describe the software packages available and offer links to current versions, as well as selected older versions which may be needed for some projects.
The eBUS SDK for JAI is a powerful new SDK for building vision systems that utilize JAI cameras. It is based on the eBUS SDK by Pleora and is specifically designed for use only with JAI cameras. The eBUS SDK for JAI consists of an SDK (Software Development Kit) and a Player.
The eBUS Player is application software for directly accessing and controlling JAI cameras in a non-programmatic way. It can be used for testing and evaluation of JAI cameras with GigE Vision or USB3 Vision interfaces. The SDK is packaged software that enables system developers to easily build programs for integrating JAI cameras into vision systems. The Windows version provides a C++ and .NET API while the Linux version provides a C++ API for Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, Ubuntu, and Ubuntu for ARM (NVIDIA Jetson modules).

All of JAI's Camera Link cameras have software control tools. The latest recommended version of the camera control tools can be downloaded, free of charge, on the Downloads page or in the Downloads tab of the product page associated with a specific model.
Please note: newer Camera Link cameras may be designed to use the JAI SDK and Control Tool. The links on the product pages will take you to the proper software for your camera.
IMPORTANT: As of April 1, 2020 the JAI SDK and Control Tool is no longer supported by JAI. The final versions of this software are available for download below. While we consider the software to be in good working order, if any bugs are found, they will not be fixed -- REGARDLESS OF THEIR CRITICALITY!
Users of GigE Vision and USB3 Vision cameras are strongly advised to use the eBUS SDK for JAI, which is available above.
If you are using a Camera Link camera, separate Control Tool software can be downloaded from the product page for your camera. Likewise, if you are using a camera with a CoaXPress interface, you are strongly encouraged to use the control tool provided with your selected frame grabber.
For simple testing and GUI-enabled control of Camera Link or CoaXPress cameras, you are welcome to try the JAI SDK and Control Tool software. However, we cannot guarantee that it will work with all cameras - especially the newest models - nor can we guarantee it to work with future upgrades of operating systems or camera firmware. Using it for development of production systems is not advised and is done at your own risk.
