4.1.9 Brightness Correction (Binning Correction)
The aggregation of charge carriers may cause an overload. To prevent this, binning cor-
rection was introduced. Here, three binning modes need to be considered separately:

Realization
1x2
1x2 binning is performed within the sensor, binning correction also takes 
place here. A possible overload is prevented by halving the exposure time.
2x1
2x1 binning takes place within the FPGA of the camera. The binning cor-
rection is realized by aggregating the charge quantities, and then halving 
this sum.
2x2
2x2 binning is a combination of the above versions.

4.2 Color Processing

Baumer color cameras are balanced to a color temperature of 5000 K.
Oversimplified, color processing is realized by 4 modules.

The color signals r (red), g (green) and b (blue) of the sensor are amplified in total and 
digitized within the camera module.
Within the Bayer processor, the raw signals r', g' and b' are amplified by using of indepen-
dent factors for each color channel. Then the missing color values are interpolated, which 
results in new color values (r'', g'', b''). The luminance signal Y is also generated.
The next step is the color transformation. Here the previously generated color signals r'', 
g'' and b'' are converted to the chroma signals U and V, which conform to the standard. 
Afterwards  theses  signals  are  transformed  into  the  desired  output  format. Thereby  the 
following steps are processed simultaneously:
▪ Transformation to color space RGB or YUV
▪ External color adjustment
▪ Color adjustment as physical balance of the spectral sensitivities
In order to reduce the data rate of YUV signals, a subsampling of the chroma signals can 
be carried out. Here the following items can be customized to the desired output format:
▪ Order of data output
▪ Subsampling of the chroma components to YUV 4:2:2 or YUV 4:1:1
▪ Limitation of the data rate to 8 bits
4.3 Color Adjustment – White Balance
This feature is available on all color cameras of the Baumer EXG series and takes 
place within the Bayer processor.
White balance means independent adjustment of the three color channels, red, 
green and blue by employing of a correction factor for each channel.
