).
Figure 23: Properties - Color
Color saturation
This function enables and configures color saturation control.
In the YUV format, color information (i.e. the color difference signals) is provided by the U and V
channels. In the U channel they result from the difference between the proportion of blue and Y
(luminance), in the V channel from the difference between the proportion of red and Y. For the use in
other color formats than YUV, U and V are converted using a driver matrix.
Combine
Selecting this check box synchronizes the two Saturation U and Saturation V sliders.
IR color filter correction matrix
When using color cameras with IR filter glass, you need to set the appropriate color correction
matrix to ensure correct color rendering. The driver detects the IR filter type and sets this value
automatically (Auto button). You can also select the correction matrix manually.
Slider "Factor"
This function corrects the color values of a pixel. The colors are rendered more accurately after the
color crosstalk of the individual Bayer pattern filters has been eliminated by the color correction.
