These are filters to revise the image. They are used to revise the image to get a neater image.

Reset

This is to reset the revised image to the original image. The effect of the applied filter will be gone when the Reset button is pressed.

STAdaptive Denoise

It is a filter to improve the chosen image by using the forward and backward images. Its advantage is, it decreases the bluntness that appears in the dark images.

The filter is applied by the following four categories.

1. Number of frame: The picture quality becomes stable and cleaner by increasing it. But the best effect is shown when the value is lower for brighter environment and higher for darker environment.

2. Filter Mask size: The picture quality becomes stable and cleaner by increasing it. But in whole, the image can be less clear.

3. Spatial Threshold: The picture quality becomes stable and cleaner by increasing it. But the detail part of the image will not be easy to differentiate.

4. Motion Threshold: The picture quality becomes stable and cleaner by increasing it. Input low value for the times in bright environment and high value for the times in dark or without movement as an after image can develop for the movements appearing.

Below is the example picture after applying [STAdaptive Denoise].

Note Various filters can be applied together.

Example,

Auto Contrast Enhance

Increase the color and light intensity of the screen automatically to increase the screen’s resolution.

Sharpen Convolution

Increase the resolution by effective to use on images with non-clear objects. The disadvantage is that the picture decreases when it is used excessively. As the setting value increase, the object differentiation will be easier but the picture quality will not be good.

Sharpen

Improve the resolution of the image by emphasizing the object’s boundary line. It has a disadvantage of lowering the picture quality as Sharpen Convolution function does. As the setting value increase, the object differentiation will be easier but the quality will not be better.

Edge-Sensitive Deinterlace

It is a function to enlarge the recorded image of 640x240 mode to 640x480 mode. This enlarging method is different from the existing mode. The boundary line is preserved while enlarging so the picture quality is maintained while the size is enlarged. If the image is recorded 640X480, contour of the image can be deviated. This phenomenon appears frequently when the fast motion is recorded. By using this filter in 640x480, deviated contour of the image is fixed.

Median

It is efficient to remove specks/spots or noise in the image. Use the setting value appropriately as the image looks as if it had been drawn with water paint when the setting value is higher.

Smooth Convolution

It is efficient to eliminate noise. It gives more natural feeling Median. But the disadvantage is that, the image will be hazy when the value is too high.

Gaussian

It eliminates the noise in whole. It is similar to Smoothing Convolution but relatively more natural than Smoothing Convolution. The noise eliminating effect is bigger as the setting value increase.

Gray

Change the image to black color.

Real Image View

When viewing the recorded data which recorded by 640x480, there comes

icon at the bottom of right side. You can see the original size of

recorded data by clicking this icon.

① [STAdaptive Denoise]→② [Auto Contrast Enhance]→③ [Sharpen], better picture quality can be get

from the revised image.

※ [Edge-Sensitive Deinterlace] filter and [STAdaptive Denoise] filter can not be applied together.

Furthermore apply these two filters first before applying other filters when there is a need to apply other filters together with these two filters. When these two filters are applied later, they will be applied to the original image and the filters applied previously will be canceled.
