Rolling Shutter With Global Reset - Point Grey Flea3 FL3-U3 Technical Reference Manual

Point Grey Flea3 USB 3.0 Technical Reference
One advantage of a rolling shutter is increased sensitivity. However, because exposure starts at different times
throughout the frame, there are known artifacts such as skew, wobble, and partial exposure. For more information,

Rolling Shutter with Global Reset

For cameras with a rolling shutter with global reset sensor, for each frame all of the lines start exposure at the same
time but the end of exposure is delayed by the offset of the previous line's readout. The exposure time for each line
gradually lengthens. Data readout for each line begins immediately following the line's exposure. The readout time for
each line is the same, but the start and end times are staggered.
