The new API is backwards compatible with the previous one except for
advanced features. The new blob code uses a flood fill algorithm that is
3x faster in filling out blobs that the previous code. On the M7 the
performance cap of 30 FPS is usually reached.
Additionally, blobs are objects with named attributes now so you don't
have to index access them anymore. However, index access is still
supported.
* Added pooling functions to make getting small images easy. set_binning
works too... but, it zooms in way to much. pooling functions aout you to
shrink the image while not zooming in.
* To make the pooling functions easy to use I created a version that
pools the image out of place and one that pools the image in place. The
inplace pooling function can work on the frame buffer (see edits to
sensor.c)
* I added the code to do hann windowing to the FFT lib. However, I
commented it out after it improved performance by basically zero.
Specialized windowing stuff will only come in handy for folks trying to
tune their algorithm... not in general for everything.
* I added subpixel resolution for the phase correlation code. You can
now track the image movement really precisely. Additionally, I fixed up
the displacement outputs to give expected results. I also added a QoR
output for the displacement code so that you can know when the results
are bad.
* Finally, an example script has been added to show off the features.
