Binning

Adjusts the camera’s binning factor.

Binning reduces the image resolution by an integer factor directly on the sensor, and thus greatly reduces the image transfer times.

Camera	Maximum binning factor
N-series	2
X-series with 1.3MP uEye sensors	2
X-series with 5MP GigE Vision sensors	4
XR-series	4

Format

Number

A positive integer specifying the binning factor.

Default Value

1

Effects on other parameters

You might want to adjust DepthChangeCost, DepthStepCost and the PostProcessing parameters for optimal 3D data results after changing the binning factor. The disparity range is automatically adjusted to keep the originally configured measurement volume. You can read the actual disparity range that is used on the binned images from the corresponding scaled nodes.
