and gain adjustment settings.
Target intensity: Selects an average intensity value for the stereo images,
which is targeted by the automatic adjustment. Intensity values are
written in percentage numbers with 0 representing black and 100 white.
Intensity delta: If the average intensity of the image is in the range of inten-
sity delta to the target intensity, no adjustment is performed, no matter
what mode is selected. You can increase the value if you observe icker-
ing in your image stream and decrease it if you need smoother variations
between consecutive frames.
Target frame: Selects if the intensity of the left frame, the intensity of the
right frame or the average intensity of both frames should be adjusted to
the target intensity.
Skipped frames: The number of ignored frames between two adjustment
steps. Increase if you want to reach a higher absolute frame rate. As most
cameras have a delay between receiving a new parameter and applying
it, that value should in general be a positive number and not set to zero.
