Dynamic range is the difference in light levels in an image. In some cases the difference between the darkest and the brightest
areas can be significant. The result is often an image where either the dark or the bright areas are visible. Wide dynamic range
(WDR) makes both dark and bright areas of the image visible.

Stabilize a shaky image with electronic image stabilization (EIS)
Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) can be used in environments where the product is mounted in an exposed location and subject to
vibrations, for example, wind or passing traffic.
EIS makes the image smoother, steadier and less blurry. It also reduces the file size of the compressed image and lowers the
bitrate of the video stream.
