Graphics Hardware

The IVE camera sends output to two different sinks. One for vision and one to be composited with the graphics for output.

Video for Output

The graphics and agents code runs on an SGI Onyx with a Sirius video I/O board. The Sirius takes video from the camera and graphics from the graphics Pipeline and combines them according to alpha values computed from the user contour supplied by the vision system.

VCP configuration

The video control panel is used to set the proper blending functions as well as to set the correct image coding and interpretation.
