◆ gamma

readonly mv.impact.acquire.PropertyF gamma = new mv.impact.acquire.PropertyF()

A floating point property. Controls the gamma correction of pixel intensity.

Controls the gamma correction of pixel intensity. Since the human eye perceives light similar to a logarithm of real light intensity it's characteristic curve is non-linear. It follows the rule of (intensity ^ gamma) with a gamma value between 0.3-0.5. To provide as much useful information as possible, the image is converted from 12-bit acquired by the sensor to 8-bit utilizing this characteristic curve. The result is a linearized image optimized for the human eye's non-linear behavior which allows to perceive as much intensity differences as possible.
