How to apply correction factor values to perform falloff correction
This article explains how to perform falloff correction on an image by using the correction factor values obtained from the ladybugGetFalloffCalibration() function in the ladybug libary. This article is applicable to Ladybug5+, Ladybug5, Ladybug3, and Ladybug2. The Ladybug library has functionality to perform falloff correction on images, however in some situations a user may want to implement falloff correction themselves. One possible reason is performance increase which could be gained from performing falloff correction in CUDA.

How to determine and interpret the Bayer Tile pixel format of a camera
All of our color imaging products are capable of streaming the raw, stippled 8-bit or 16-bit-per-pixel Bayer Tile image data to the PC, which can then be color processed / interpolated to 24- or 32-bit BGR data. See "Different color processing algorithms" for further details on color processing. To configure a camera to output raw Bayer data, consult your camera's Technical Reference manual.

Setting Persistent IP in Spinnaker QT
If the default camera IP Address is not on the same subnet as the host controller interface then a warning is displayed in SpinView. In order to initialize the camera you must force it to be on the same subnet as the interface. It is then recommended to set a persistent IP so that IP Address does not have to be forced every time the device is used.
