Image Flip / Mirror (FireFly MV USB) #31

Closed mhkabir closed 8 years ago

Hi,

Having the ability to flip or mirror a image from a camera would be very useful (I'm using a FireFly MV on the USB bus) and our hardware mounting is such that I need one camera flipped horizontally.

According to PointGrey's Register Reference, it can be enabled by setting the register IMAGE_DATA_FORMAT(0x1048) , bit 23 to 1 or 0 as required. It will do image flip on-camera in DMA buffers. https://pixhawk.ethz.ch/_media/dev/electronics/cameras/point_grey_digital_camera_register_reference.pdf

I'm willing to implement this myself, so some guidance would be highly appreciated.

Thanks, Kabir
