Yes, the Tau 2 is supported. Though please note the limitations in the readme - unless you have a readout board, image capture will be very slow. Support for image capture on the Tau2 is not great right now, but control is fine.
I've updated the readme to reflect that only the Tau 2 has been tested.

Thank You so much... I am sorry but I want to know whether you know a ROS driver for Flir Tau 2 is available or not. I know this is a different issue, but I was unsure as to whether i should open a different issue or not.
Not sure. I don't think there is. You'd probably have to write one, but it wouldn't be complicated if you're just publishing images. Do you have an adapter for the camera core?
I have a VPC (Video Power Communication) and Camera Link Expansion Board. Is this what you mean?
Something that will let you capture images digitally (i.e. not analogue), so camera link would be fine. I'm not sure if you're familiar with writing ROS nodes, but you need some driver to actually capture the image and then some code to publish the topic.
However, this is somewhat out of flirpy's scope at the moment. I might provide some ROS examples in the future when ROS Noetic goes live.
In the docs it is mentioned that this library supports flir Tau Cameras. Does this support Flir Tau2 Cameras too?
