8.1.1 Important GenICam parameters
The following list gives an overview of the relevant GenICam features of the rc_visard that can be read and/or
changed via the GenICam interface. In addition to the standard parameters, which are defined in the Standard Fea-
ture Naming Convention (SFNC, see http://www.emva.org/standards-technology/genicam/genicam-downloads/),
rc_visard devices also offer custom parameters that account for special features of the Stereo camera (Section 6.1)
and the Stereo matching (Section 6.2) component.
Important standard GenICam features
Category: ImageFormatControl
ComponentSelector
type: Enumeration, one of Intensity, IntensityCombined, Disparity, Confidence, or Error
default: -
description: Allows the user to select one of the five image streams for configuration (see Chunk data,
Section 8.1.1).
ComponentIDValue (read-only)
type: Integer
description: The ID of the image stream selected by the ComponentSelector.
ComponentEnable
type: Boolean
default: -
description: If set to true, it enables the image stream selected by ComponentSelector; otherwise,
it disables the stream. Using ComponentSelector and ComponentEnable, individual image streams
can be switched on and off.
Width (read-only)
type: Integer
description: Image width in pixel of image stream that is currently selected by ComponentSelector.
Height (read-only)
type: Integer
description: Image height in pixel of image stream that is currently selected by ComponentSelector.
WidthMax (read-only)
type: Integer
description: Maximum width of an image, which is always 1280 pixels.
HeightMax (read-only)
type: Integer
description: Maximum height of an image in the streams. This is always 1920 pixels due to the stacked
left and right images in the IntensityCombined stream (see Chunk data, Section 8.1.1).
PixelFormat
type: Enumeration with some of Mono8, YCbCr411
_
8 (color sensors only), Coord3D
_
C16,
Confidence8 and Error8
description: Pixel format of the selected component. The enumeration only permits to choose the for-
mat among the possibly formats for the selected component. For a color sensor, Mono8 or YCbCr411
_
8
can be chosen for the Intensity and IntensityCombined component.
