5.5 Area of Interest
5.5.1 Overview
For some applications, the user may not need the entire image, but only a portion of it. To
accommodate this requirement, Cheetah provides 1 (one) Region of Interest (ROI) also
known as Area of Interest (AOI) for Frame A and one for Frame B. The C4080 offers a pre-
programmed quad full HD (QFD) AOI (3840 x 2160 resolution) to simplify camera setup for
QFHD applications. The Cheetah also allows custom AOIs as described below.
5.5.2 AOI Horizontal and Vertical Window
The starting and ending point for each AOI can be set independently in horizontal
direction (Horizontal Window) and vertical direction (Vertical Window), by setting the
window (H & V) offset and (H & V) size. The minimum window size is 8 (H) x 2 (V)
pixel/line. The maximum horizontal window size (H) and the vertical window size (V) are
determined by image full resolution (C4080: 4000 x 3000 and C2880: 2832 x 2128).
