Secure image signature (SIS)

Definition Secure image signature (SIS) is the synonym for data, which is inserted into

an image to improve or check image integrity.

All Stingray models can insert

• Time stamp (1394 bus cycle time at the beginning of integration)

• Frame counter (frames read out of the sensor)

• Trigger counter (external trigger seen only)

• Various camera settings

into a selectable line position within the image. Frame counter and trigger

counter are available as advanced registers to be read out directly.

Advanced register: SIS

The SIS feature is controlled by the following advanced feature register:

Enabling this feature, SIS data will be inserted into any captured image. The

size of SIS data depends on the selected SIS format.

The LineNo field indicates at which line the SIS data will be inserted.
