Tuning Guidelines: Color Correction
40 SMX-M7xx Series USB2.0 Camera User Guide
Color Correction
The Color Correction Controls are designed for the SMX-M72 and SMX-M73 (color)
models to adjust the intensity of the color properties (brightness, contrast and
saturation) of the image. This correction is performed on the software level and does
not affect any electrical settings of the camera.
Check the Enable check box on the Color Correction tab to make the Color Correction
Controls available.
Figure 4-12 Enabling the Color Correction tab
Use the Default button to restore the default values of brightness, contrast and
saturation - 0.0; 1.00; 1.00, respectively.
Advanced Sensor Controls
Apart of the controls in the main application window, you can also use controls
available in the Device Settings window. To access the Device Settings window, press
Alt+s on the keyboard or select Settings from the Device menu.
Color Mode
The Color Mode section defines the rules for decoding the stream of source pixels from
the sensor and transforming it into the output image. This control is available for the
SMX-M72 and SMX-M73 color models.
Figure 4-13 Advanced sensor controls
● The Monochrome mode forces the transformation of the sensor pixels data into
monochrome stream.
● The Nearest Color mode: Bayer matrix from the sensor is transformed into destina-
tion stream using the Nearest Color algorithm (the fastest algorithm that gives the
worst, compared to other algorithms, image quality).
