    4.2 Spectral sensitivity (camSPECS) Module 1. Select the calibration file for your camSPECS device. With the '+' and '-' buttons calibration files can be added and removed from the list. Calibration files can be saved to a specified location with the ‘S’...
  • Page 7 (.txt) and an XML file in the same directory as the original image directory. For the camSPECS version a tile image is saved to the same directory as the origin of the images directory assembled from the single images. Check this image for correct positions of the ROIs or all filters.

    6. Add Image Folder to select the folder containing the image capture files of each of the spectra specified in item 5 above. 7. Press Start to compute the spectral sensitivities of the test camera. 8. The Results panel shows the computed spectral sensitivities for the test camera. Image Engineering Seite 8 von 12...

    4. ICC profile test image 2 selects from a list of ICC profiles. To view the image color managed for viewing on an sRGB device, select the ICC profile just created in the CCM/ICC profile creation module. 5. Export image… saves the white balanced, 16 bit, linear RGB image with the ICC profile embedded. Image Engineering Seite 12 von...
