# gpiv\_recimg(1)

captures images from a IIDC-compliant camera with IEE1394 connection.

## NAME

gpiv\_recimg - captures images from a IIDC-compliant camera with IEE1394  connection.

## SYNOPSIS

**gpiv\_recimg**  \[**-f** *filename*\] \[**-h** \| **--help**\] \[**-v** \| **--version**\]   \[**-V** \| **--verbose**\]   \[**-x** \| **--x\_corr**\]   \< *stdin* \> *stdout*

## DESCRIPTION

**gpiv\_recimg** *records image pairs for Particle Image velocimetry* *(PIV). The code supports IIDC-compliant cameras that are connected to* *the computer with IEEE1394.  Such an image pair may be analysed by* *gpiv\_rr in the cross-correlation mode for PIV.*

*This program uses the* **IMG** parameters. The command line options are explained below.

## Options

**-f** *filename*  Overrides stdin and stdout with *filename*. The filename has to be given without its **.r** extension. Output will be written to *filename***.r**.

- **-h** \| **--help**

  On-line help.

- **-v** \| **--version**

  Print version information on standard output, then exit successfully.

- **-V** \| **--verbose**

  program behaves more verbose during operation showing what is going on

- **-x** \| **--x\_corr**

  Records two succesive image frames for cross-correlation and stores as a single image. In this case, **gpiv\_combing** is not needed.
