AES/AGC
On this tab, you can set parameters for automatically adjusting the exposure time and sensor gain
of your
uEye
camera (see also Automatic Image Control).
Figure 84: uEye properties - AES/AGC
·
Auto Exposure Shutter (AES)
automatically adjusts image brightness based on the
exposure shutter setting. Long exposure times may cause motion blur.
·
Auto Gain Control (AGC)
automatically adjusts image brightness based on the
hardware gain control setting of the camera sensor . You can activate this function in
addition to
AES
if ambient light conditions are poor. High gain settings may cause
artefacting.
·
Auto Frame Rate (AFR)
adjusts the
frame rate
to allow longer exposure times (see also
Pixel Clock, Frame Rate and Exposure Time). Selecting this check box might decrease
the frame rate substantially. This function is only available when
AES
is active.
·
Image contrast
Use the following settings to configure automatic brightness control:
§
Exposure (AES)
Select this check box to automatically adjust the image brightness based on the exposure shutter
setting.
§
Gain (AGC)
Select this check box to automatically adjust the image brightness based on the gain setting.
§
Framerate (AFR)
Select this check box to adjust the frame rate in such a way that the exposure shutter is
optimized.. This option is only available when
AES
is active.
