The numbers land where you ship.

DimCam does not replace your shipping software. It fills it in.

UPS WorldShip · FedEx Ship Manager

Desktop shipping apps

Put the cursor in the Weight field and press the DimCam hotkey. It types weight, Tab, Tab, Tab, length, Tab, width, Tab, height, following your form. Key, tab pattern, units and rounding are set once.

ShipStation · any browser form

Web shipping apps

The same hotkey works in a focused browser form, so ShipStation and other web tools get filled the same way. Or let your web app read the local API directly.

REST on :8080 · TCP on :59086

Your own software

Poll one JSON endpoint from any language on the station PC or across the LAN. Live video overlay, MJPEG stream and searchable history with photos are endpoints too. Wire-compatible with the Tricolops Dimensioning App, so software written for a RapidSize works unchanged.

REST · one GET, millimetres and kilograms on the wire
GET http://127.0.0.1:8080/data

{
  "length":  "356.1",   "width": "254.3",   "height": "203.2",
  "weight":  "1.451",   "weight_stable": true,
  "status":  "7",       "message": "Object measured successfully",
  "cuboid":  true,      "box_factor": 0.99,  "oversized": false
}
TCP · one letter in, one line out
$ nc 127.0.0.1 59086
D                      ->  356.1 254.3 203.2
W                      ->  1.451
Node · six lines to a filled shipment
const r = await fetch('http://127.0.0.1:8080/data').then((x) => x.json());
if (r.status === '7' && r.weight_stable) {
  const inches = (mm) => Math.ceil(mm / 25.4);          // carriers round up
  shipment.dims = [r.length, r.width, r.height].map(inches); // 14 x 10 x 8
  shipment.lb   = +(r.weight * 2.20462).toFixed(1);          // 3.2
}
