Data compression is highly desirable to increase the speed and decrease the network bandwidth and disk storage required for modern high-performance detectors.
This talk will describe new support for data compression in areaDetector. These include:
- New NDPluginCodec plugin. This plugin can compress and decompress NDArrays using any of 4 codecs: JPEG, Blosc, LZ4, and Bitshuffle/LZ4. JPEG...
This talk will describe new support for data compression in the areaDetector NDPluginHDF5 plugin that writes HDF5 files. These include:
- Support for the JPEG, Blosc, LZ4, and Bitshuffle/LZ4 plugins within NDPluginHDF5. This support receives uncompressed NDArrays and writes them using compression within the HDF5 data pipeline. This has limited performance because it is not multi-threaded,...
GenICam is a standard from the European Machine Vision Association that is widely adopted for cameras and other detectors. GenICam cameras contain an XML file that can be downloaded, and which contains a complete description of all of the features that the camera supports and how to access them. GenICam also defines the transport layer API, and supports the GigE Vision, USB3 Vision,...
