Hi,

I would like to know the differences between the various camera modes in detail. What are the differences between the OBJECT mode and PRECISION mode?

Do you provide some kind of documentation for the camera SDK? I am aware of the small code snippets that are available after installation. But it is really painstaking and time consuming to explore the various functions without a proper documentation for the API. A doxygen style docu for the API and a neat pdf explaining the camera modes in detail will help us developers a lot..

Thanks,

Hello -

Object, precision, and segment mode are various methods of camera preprocessing to help balance incoming data rate with quality of information. In general, Object sends the least information, precision sends the most, and segment lies in between the two. For an in-depth explanation, see this thread.

As for Documentation:

I have finished working on a breakout of the documentaiton for the Tracking Tools API, and it is currently in technical review. I have started a complete writeup of the Camera SDK, and as soon as I am finished, it will be sent for technical review, then released to the public. Due to the size, I am considering releasing it in stages as I finish documentation of each of the individual classes (Camera, CameraManager, and Frame being the most critical to the end-user experience, would probably be released first).

Thanks a lot Mike. I am desperately waiting for the release
