Diff for "Image_Processing_with_GigE_Cameras"

Differences between revisions 5 and 9 (spanning 4 versions)

1. Make GigE camera(s) work: full resolution, high dynamic range (all the bits), lower frame rate.

Explore required network bandwidth: how many GigE cameras can we have on single hub?
Some image processing: beam sizes, beam centroids, total power, diffs,...
Image archiving: 1/sec for the past 5 minutes, 1/minute for the past day, 6/hour forever
Image compression? Just record the diffs?
Use TM spots to do auto-alignment.
Port Josh's beam scan stuff to use these cameras.
Buy more cameras.

I tried to capture frames with Snap from both cameras.  It seems that the images from the 650 work less well than those from the 750 (image from the 650 is a bar across the top with some data, and then all black).  While the -Exposure setting works well, there might be times in which a -Gain option is also nice.

I also spent a little time with the cameras on the GC network.  I was able to get about 10fps from both cameras at the simultaneously.  The 750 alone maxed out at 33fps, even with 200x200 image size.  The 650 was able to produce 188fps with a 200x200 image size.  All of this was done with the packet size set to 1024b.
