The new format will be called V4L2_PIX_FMT_Y10P. It is similar to the V4L2_PIX_FMT_SBGGR10P family formats but V4L2_PIX_FMT_Y10P is a grayscale format.

YUV Formats

***********
|
|
|
|
YUV is the format native to TV broadcast and composite video signals. It
|
|
separates the brightness information (Y) from the color information (U
|
|
and V or Cb and Cr). The color information consists of red and blue
|
|
*color difference* signals, this way the green component can be
|
|
reconstructed by subtracting from the brightness component. See
|
|
:ref:`colorspaces` for conversion examples. YUV was chosen because
|
|
early television would only transmit brightness information. To add
|
|
color in a way compatible with existing receivers a new signal carrier
|
|
was added to transmit the color difference signals. Secondary in the YUV
|
|
format the U and V components usually have lower resolution than the Y
|
|
component. This is an analog video compression technique taking
|
|
advantage of a property of the human visual system, being more sensitive
|
|
to brightness information.
