Image size
You can select the image size to be sent from the camera.
640 × 480 (VGA), 320 × 240 (QVGA) or 160 × 120
(QQVGA)
can be selected.
When 640 × 480 (VGA) is selected and Cropping is set

the cropped image on the computer.

Cropping
When the image size is set to 640 × 480 (VGA), you can
crop a portion of the image and display the cropped
image on the computer. Cropping reduces the
transmitting data size and thus the network load, and a
higher frame rate is achieved.

Select On to crop the image, or Off.

Note

Object detection (page 57) operates for an image in the
image size that is not cropped even if Cropping is set to
On.
