· Edge enhancement
This function activates a software filter that emphasises the edges in the image.
Enabling the Edge enhancement function increases the CPU load during image capture.
· Gamma
This function activates the gamma function and sets the factor for the gamma curve. The gamma
function emphasises dark image areas according to a non-linear curve. When you are using a
GigE uEye HE camera and have activated hardware color calculation, the gamma curve is
calculated in the camera. In all other cases, the gamma curve is calculated in the PC.
§ Hardware sensor gamma
Select this check box to enable gamma correction by the hardware, using a fixed factor. This
function is currently only available for the UI-122X-X/UI-522X-X.
· Default
Click this button to reset all parameters to the model-specific defaults.

With cameras featuring both master gain and RGB gain, the two gain factors are
multiplied. Very high gain values can be achieved in this way.
If you want to use the RGB sliders for color adjustment, we recommend setting green gain
to 0 and using only red and blue gain.
