Hue and saturation
PIKE CCD color models are equipped with hue and saturation registers.
The hue register at offset 810h allows the color of objects to be changed
without altering the white balance, by +/- 40 steps (+/- 10°) from the nom-
inal perception. Use this setting to manipulate the color appearance after
having carried out the white balance.
The saturation register at offset 814h allows the intensity of the colors to be
changed between 0 and 200% in steps of 1/256.
This means a setting of zero changes the image to black and white and a set-
ting of 511 doubles the color intensity compared to the nominal one at 256.
To configure this feature in feature control register: See Table 130: Feature
control register on page 272.
Note
L
Hue and saturation do not show any effect on PIKE color
models in the Raw8 and Raw16 format, because color pro-
cessing is switched off in all Raw formats.
