The Threshold Mode (TRSH) 
In this mode the position of left (P
L
) and right (P
R
) edge of the laser beam profile are detected for a 
given threshold value of intensity AOI_TRSH
. 
AOI_TRSH

The position value of the laser line is approximated: P
TRSH
 = (P
L
+P
R
) / 2. In order to simplify the digital 
representation the division over 2 is not performed and thus an integer representation with one 
subpixel is realised. The evaluation of 1024 rows delivers a position range from 0 to 2047 pixels 
(11 bit). 
In threshold mode the camera can output either the left and right threshold position separately or the 
subpixel position (P
L
+P
R
) and the line width (P
R
-P
L
). Moreover, the maximum intensity value can be 
optionally output.
