Software and Data

Flame Tracker

Software developed by Dr. Luca Carmignani

The Flame Tracker is a Python-based video processing application designed for the combustion research community. With its Graphical User Interface (GUI), it is possible to edit a video and track a flame or a bright object on a frame by frame basis. Flame characteristics such as position, spread rate, length and area can be obtained by isolating a flame from its background with different methods.

The Flame Tracker is open source and cross platform; however, the MacOS and Windows versions have slightly different codes for the GUI visualization.

The code (Python-based) works on Windows, MacOS and Linux, and it’s available on Github:
https://github.com/combustionTools/flameTracker
The instructions are available on Github as well:
https://github.com/combustionTools/flameTracker/wiki
I made also some video tutorials on Youtube:

Open-source data is available following publication of results. If you’re interested in data you can’t find, email Prof. Gollner and we will work with you.
