ImageCaptureFunction
is an option for ImageCapture that specifies the function to apply to images acquired by the imaging device.
Details

- Images are stored in the buffer after the function specified using ImageCaptureFunction is applied to them.
- Typical settings include:
-
Identity no processing "LeftRightReverse" left-right mirroring "TopBottomReverse" top-bottom mirroring "Rotate90" counterclockwise 90° rotation "Rotate180" counterclockwise 180° rotation "Rotate270" counterclockwise 270° rotation f an arbitrary function f - Use ImagePreviewFunction to process images only during display.

The function to be applied to all images at acquisition time is also a property of camera devices:
By default, the capture function is Identity, which is equivalent to no processing:
