tc01a: reconstructing Fluke iSee TC01A USB control
tc01a reconstructs Fluke iSee TC01A camera control from the Android app and native library behavior. Its Python libusb driver streams thermal video, decodes per-pixel temperatures and sends vendor USB commands for shutter, gain and emissivity settings.
