To flip the image up-down or left-right, you can use the mirror transformation feature of the camera.
Many sensors support to mirror the image at least in one direction. |
Refer to the "List of supported features" for GigE Vision cameras and USB3 Vision cameras for more information on a specific camera model.
If your camera model does not support the needed mirror feature, you can use a software algorithm instead, see Transforming images (flip, rotate). |
Configuration
ReverseX = True;
ReverseY = True;
Dependencies to other features: PixelFormat
Using a RAW Bayer format in combination with mirror features of the camera (ReverseX, ReverseY) can affect the pixel order and thus the PixelFormat. E.g. a ReverseX mirror (left/right) transformation changes a BayerRG to a BayerGR format.
Fig. 111: Typical change of PixelFormat in combination with ReverseX, ReverseY mirror features
There are some sensors that do not change PixelFormat but rather shift the sensor ROI by one pixel to maintain the PixelFormat. |
