Synopsis
The functions prefixed with Mbuf make up the
Buffer module. The Buffer module allows you to allocate and control
data buffers (storage areas) that are typically operated on by
functions of several MIL modules. These buffers include image
buffers and lookup table (LUT) buffers. The Buffer module allows
you to isolate regions of a buffer using child buffers, as well as
copy required sequential or non-sequential regions or bit-planes of
a buffer to another buffer. The module's copy functions are
optimized to make the best possible use of available system
resources to maximize transferring speed. The module can archive
and retrieve buffer data in common storage formats (for example,
TIFF and JPEG). It can also create, save, and load sequences in AVI
format. The module allows you to compress and decompress images and
sequences, supporting both lossy and lossless JPEG and JPEG2000
compression algorithms. Furthermore, the module allows you to
convert images grabbed from a camera with a Bayer filter, into
3-band color images.
