Sensor Gain

The Calibir camera supports two sensor gain settings: normal gain (1x) and high gain (3x).
The high gain setting amplifies the analog signal output from the sensor, effectively increasing the
temperature difference between pixel values. This can enhance scenes with small ranges of
temperature differences but can also increase noise.
Sensor Gain = 1x Sensor Gain = 3x
