Camera resolution #74

Open romainbrette opened 6 years ago

romainbrette commented 6 years ago

On the new camera, we can request binning, which increases the frame rate (eg 2x2 binning). This can be done on the software (Capture). A potential problem is the setting on the software is transferred to the setting used by holypipette. So if we change this setting there, the calibration becomes incorrect. So I'm wondering whether we might want that the program requests eg the highest resolution at the start. However for tracking (eg Paramecium), maybe we'll need binning...

Another option is to register the resolution at which calibration has been done, simply by storing the width and height of the image in the configuration file. Then at start up, we look at width and height of the image, and we calculate a conversion factor and update the matrices directly.

This way we let the user control resolution with external tools. We might simply want to warn the user when resolution has changed between what's on the file and what's on the image currently.
