On this tab, you can set the image size parameters for your uEye camera (see also Reading out Partial Images).

AOI
These parameters allow selecting the size and position of the area of interest.
• | Profile
With this selection box, you can set several common image formats on CMOS sensors. The driver then sets the selected format using either AOI, binning / subsampling, or scaler, so that it achieves the best image quality. |
• | Show only AOI
The AOI is displayed without a black border. Internally, the image is managed at the AOI resolution and not the full sensor resolution. This function saves memory and computing time when rendering the image. |
o | Width
Sets the AOI width. |
o | Height
Sets the AOI height. |
o | Left
Sets the left-hand position of the AOI. |
▪ | Center
Select this check box to center the AOI horizontally. |
o | Top
Sets the top position of the AOI. |
▪ | Center
Select this check box to center the AOI vertically. |
Horizontal format / Vertical format
With these check boxes and radio buttons, you can select the binning and subsampling settings for the image.
• | Normal
Disables binning and subsampling. |
• | Mirror left/right / Mirror up/down
Select this check box to flip the image horizontally/vertically. |
• | 2x/3x/4x/5x/6x/8x Binning
These radio buttons allow setting the binning factor. The image resolution is then reduced by the selected factor. You can use binning to increase the frame rate. |
• | 2x/3x/4x/5x/6x/8x/16x Subsampling
These radio buttons allow setting the subsampling factor. The image resolution is then reduced by the selected factor. You can use subsampling to increase the frame rate. |

The Camera and Sensor Data chapter shows you which binning and subsampling factors the individual camera models support.

|
Some color cameras perform only mono binning/subsampling due to the sensors they use. If mono binning or subsampling is used in a color camera, the color information will be lost.
Some monochrome cameras perform only color binning/subsampling due to the sensors they use. If color binning or subsampling is used in a monochrome camera, image artifacts might become visible.
