Syntax

[VB]

[C/C++]

HRESULT put_Integrate( short Integrate );

Data Type [VB]

Integer


Parameters [C/C++]

pIntegrate [out,retval]

Pointer to the ordinal number of the currently selected Integrate filter, zero if Integrate conversion is disabled.

Integrate [in]

0 - Frame integration is disabled.

1 - Running Average mode. Each output frame is the result of averaging a selected number of previously captured frames.

2 - Running Accumulation mode. Each output frame is the sum of a selected number of previously captured frame.

Return Values

S_OK

Success

E_FAIL

Failure.

Example

This VB example activates the running average mode with a 16-frame window:

ActiveGige1.IntegrateWnd=16
ActiveGige1.Integrate = 1

Remarks

The frame integration is especially useful for suppressing the noise in the video and increasing its contrast in a low-light situation.
