The Probe

Supported Probe for Didge CamPro

The Didge CamPro app supports direct connection with the MFC-supplied temperature probe. This probe provides integrated temperature readings alongside captured images, streamlining food safety checks with Ridgy Vision AI.


Probe Requirements

  • Android Phone with USB-C Port

    The probe connects directly to the USB-C (CUSB) port of your Android device.

  • No Pairing or Setup Required

    Simply plug in the probe and CamPro will detect it automatically.

  • Refresh Rate

    Temperature readings update every ~2 seconds in the app.

  • Purchase

    Probes are available directly from MFC Safe Pty Ltd.


Probe with CamPro

  1. Plug the probe into your phone’s USB-C port.

  2. Open the Didge app and select CamPro.

  3. The live camera screen will display the probe temperature in the top-right corner.

  4. Capture images as usual — the temperature is logged automatically with the photo.


Supported Android Phones

Any modern Android phone with a USB-C port is supported.

We recommend the Blackview brand of rugged Android phones:

  • Built for kitchens and harsh environments

  • Long battery life

  • Waterproof or water resistant

  • Proven reliability with Didge and Ridgy

Other brands such as Samsung, Google Pixel, or any mainstream Android phone with USB-C will also work seamlessly.


Probe Optionality

The probe is recommended but not required.

  • With Probe: Temperatures are read automatically and displayed in CamPro.

  • Without Probe: You can still use Ridgy Vision AI by ensuring a digital probe thermometer is visible in the image. Ridgy will detect and log the temperature from the photo.

This flexibility allows you to use existing thermometers while still benefiting from AI-powered data capture.


✅ With the probe connected, CamPro becomes a one-step solution: temperature + image + Ridgy AI processing, all integrated into your food safety workflow.
