Matrix mvBlueFOX3 User Manual

18.3.3.2 mvNTo1
To get an averaged pixel, this mode takes the gray value of each pixel of the specified number of
subsequent frames ("mv Frame Average Frame Count") and calculates the average. E.g.
Averaging of pixel [0,0] using 8 frames ("mv Frame Average Frame Count = 8") will be as
follows:
Gray_value[0,0,image1] + Gray_value[0,0,image2] + ... + Gray_value[0,0,image8]
Pixel_avg[0,0] = ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8
Using wxPropView
Using the frame average mode "mvNTo1", you have to do the following step:
Start wxPropView and1.
connect to the camera.2.
Then specify in "Setting -> Base -> Camera -> GenICam -> Device Control" which
processing unit of the camera should do the frame averaging, e.g. unit 0 should do the frame
averaging
"mv Device Processing Unit Selector = 0"
"mv Device Processing Unit = mvFrameAverage".
Afterwards, "mv Frame Average Control" is available.
3.
Now open "Setting -> Base -> Camera -> GenICam -> mv Frame Average Control" and4.
select "mv Frame Average Mode = mvNto1".5.
Select the number of frames you want to use for averaging ("mv Frame Average Frame
Count"), e.g. 8.
This, of course, reduces the frame rate. If you have a frame rate of 8 frames per second and
a "mv Frame Average Frame Count" of 8 frames, this will result to a frame rate of 1
Hz.
6.
Activate frame averaging by setting "mv Frame Average Frame Enable = 1".7.
