fix flickering of input images #12

Open ofZach opened 14 years ago

perhaps dynamically sort incoming video images so there's no or less flickering ? I think when dark eye / bright isn't found, we should do something besides what we are doing now. it's very visually distracting, esp for calibrating the camera / focus / etc.

kylemcdonald commented 14 years ago

agree very much. something to keep in mind is that we want the system to recover as quickly as possible when it loses sync, and the flicker is caused by not having any hysteresis so that this delay is minimized.

while this is the best thing for the code... it's definitely not the best for a debug screen. so the debug screen should have some hysteresis in how it displays the images (to avoid flickering) but in the background it shouldn't have any so it can recover as fast as possible.
