Image Processing It is possible for an edge to be the same luminance value but have a color difference. As the VED algorithm only works in luminance and cannot differentiate between different colors, it is essential to process the image under measure to achieve the contrast necessary for a successful edge detection. The system provides four image processing controls: hue, range (lightness), contrast and threshold. NOTE The Image Processing function is OFF by default. To turn ON the function, access the system settings, press the Video button then set the Image Processing field to YES. Press the Done button (bottom right), then press Done again to save the changes and exit system settings.
