Post by: reddington on August 24, 2019, 08:07:12 am

I was wondering whether the pixels are averaged or summed when binning with the Atik Horizon.

Binning is a technique where groups of pixels are added together, with the result being a brighter
image. The CMOS sensor in the Atik Horizon only supports binning in software. This is where the
pixel values are added together after image acquisition, as opposed to hardware binning where
pixels are combined on the sensor.
