JPEG vs Uncompressed image format
Besides lower bandwidth and quality degradation, what are the trade-offs between setting CusImageFormat as Jpeg instead of Uncompressed ? For context, I want to minimize the probe's network usage on a network shared with other real-time streams.
My overarching questions are the following:
- Does the SDK generate the Jpeg/Uncompressed images on the host machine, or does the probe generate them and then send them over WiFi to the host machine?
- If the latter, does Jpeg encoding have a high impact on battery time, or could it cause the probe to overheat faster?
- Are there any guidelines on when to use one instead of the other? What setting is used by the Clarius mobile app?
- Our probe generates the images in a proprietary format, so the format selection is purely an output of the SDK
- No impact on the the probe itself
- We use Uncompressed as our GL rendering comprises of XRGB data for Doppler and other modality overlays, and includes opacity formulations for other use cases
