RawSpeed Developer Information

================================================================================



What is RawSpeed?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



RawSpeed…



- is capable of decoding various images in RAW file format.

- is intended to provide the fastest decoding speed possible.

- supports the most common DSLR and similar class brands.

- supplies unmodified RAW data, optionally scaled to 16 bit, or normalized to 0->1 float point data.

- supplies CFA layout for all known cameras.

- provides automatic black level calculation for cameras having such information.

- optionally crops off  “junk” areas of images, containing no valid image information.

- can add support for new cameras by adding definitions to an xml file.

- decodes images from memory, not a file stream.

- is being continuously fuzzed |oss-fuzz| as part of the `oss-fuzz`_ project.

- is currently tested on |rpu-button-cameras| unique cameras, on |rpu-button-samples| unique samples.

  **Please read** `this `_ **for more info on how to contribute samples!**

- open source under the `LGPL v2`_ license.

RawSpeed does **NOT**…



- read metadata information, beside whitebalance information.

- do any color correction or whitebalance correction.

- de-mosaic the image.

- supply a viewable image or thumbnail.

- crop the image to the same sizes as manufactures, but supplies biggest possible images.



So RawSpeed is not intended to be a complete RAW file display library,  but only act as the first stage decoding, delivering the RAW data to your application.



Version 2, new cameras and features

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Support for Sigma foveon cameras.

- Support for Fuji cameras.

- Support old Minolta, Panasonic, Sony cameras (contributed by Pedro Côrte-Real)

- Arbitrary CFA definition sizes.

- Use pugixml_ for xml parsing to avoid depending on libxml.

Getting Source Code

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You can get access to the latest version using `from here `_. You will need to include the “RawSpeed” and “data” folder in your own project.



CMake-based build system is provided.



Integration into LLVM LNT / Test-Suite

--------------------------------------

It is possible to natively integrate the RawSpeed into LLVM test-suite, and use

`LLVM LNT `_ to do testing, benchmarking, performance tracking.

For quick overview please see `LLVM LNT / Test-Suite Integration `_



Background of RawSpeed

----------------------

The main objectives were to make a very fast loader that worked for 75% of the cameras out there, and was able to decode a RAW file at close to the optimal speed. The last 25% of the cameras out there could be serviced by a more generic loader, or convert their images to DNG – which as a sidenote usually compresses better than your camera.



RawSpeed is not at the moment a separate library, so you have to include it in your project directly.



Submitting Requests and Patches

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
