The origin is set to the first pixel being 36 read out, the X-axis points along the column read-out direction towards 37 the last columns, and the Y-axis along the row read-out direction towards 38 the last row. 39 40 A typical example for a sensor with a 2592x1944 pixel array matrix 41 observed from the front is: 42 43 2591 X-axis 0 44 <------------------------+ 0 45 .......... ... ..........! 46 .......... ... ..........!

The origin is 54 placed on the top-left corner of the visible scene, the X-axis points 55 towards the right, and the Y-axis points towards the bottom of the scene. 56 The top, bottom, left and right directions are intentionally not defined 57 and depend on the environment in which the camera is used. 58 59 A typical example of a (very common) picture of a shark swimming from left 60 to right, as seen from the camera, is: 61 62 0 X-axis 63 0 +-------------------------------------> 64 ! 65 ! 66 ! 67 ! |\____)\___ 68 ! ) _____ __`< 69 ! |/ )/ 70 ! 71 ! 72 ! 73 V 74 Y-axis 75 76 with the reference system 'Rs' placed on the camera focal plane: 77 78 ¸.·˙! 79 ¸.·˙ ! 80 _ ¸.·˙ ! 81 +-/ \-+¸.·˙ ! 82 | (o) | !
