IDS peak 2.8.0 / uEye+ firmware 3.33
The term "pixel format" combines pixel order and the image's color format. Pixel format names stand for the following information:
•Color format (RAW Bayer, Mono, RGB, ...)
•Bit depth (8 bit, 10 bit, 12 bit, ...)
•Data packing (unpacked, packed)
•Pixel order (RG, GR, ...)
•Grouped tag (e.g. "g12" when grouped into 12 bits)
|
The following section refers to the data representation that is valid for USB transfer and data delivery through the transport layer, e.g. as featured with IDS peak. The data representation for transfer in GigE Vision differs - which is only of interest for those, directly implementing their own transport layer. Further information can also be found in the GenICam Pixel Format Naming Convention (PFNC). |
The available pixel formats for each application depend on the camera, especially the sensor model and whether it is a color or a monochrome sensor.
