The Bilinear mode: Bayer matrix from the sensor is transformed into destination
stream using the Bilinear algorithm (a slower algorithm that gives better quality).

The Laplacian mode: Bayer matrix from the sensor is transformed into destination
stream using the Linear Interpolation with Laplacian second-order correction terms
(the slowest algorithm that gives the best quality).

Image Flip

You can flip the image in the Video mode window horizontally and/or vertically. Check
the corresponding boxes in the Flip Image section of the Device Settings window.
Using the flip controls, you can rotate the image without changing the camera position
itself.

Increasing Image Quality

You can increase the image quality by compensating the random noise of the sensor.
For this purpose, use the Average Frames controls in the Device Settings window.

There are two averaging modes:

Last N frames: the currently displayed frame is the average of the last N frames set in
the Frames box. The picture is updating every frame

Pack N Frames: the currently displayed frame is the average of the last N frames set
in the Frames box. The picture is updating every N-th frame.

Note

Use the averaging only for static pictures. Displaying moving objects in the average mode will lead to the image
blurring.

Frame Rate

You can change the frame rate for the current sensor parameters (for example,
frequency or viewport) using the FrameRate Control button in the lower part of the
Device Settings window.

To change frame rate:

1

Open the Device Settings window by pressing Alt+s on the keyboard.

2

Press the FrameRate Control button.

The Frame Rate Control box opens. By default, it shows the maximum value for the
current sensor parameters.
