Renesas R-Car VSP1 1-D Histogram Data


Description
===========

This format describes histogram data generated by the Renesas R-Car VSP1 1-D
Histogram (HGO) engine.

The VSP1 HGO is a histogram computation engine that can operate on RGB, YCrCb
or HSV data. It operates on a possibly cropped and subsampled input image and
computes the minimum, maximum and sum of all pixels as well as per-channel
histograms.

The HGO can compute histograms independently per channel, on the maximum of the
three channels (RGB data only) or on the Y channel only (YCbCr only). It can
additionally output the histogram with 64 or 256 bins, resulting in four
possible modes of operation.

- In *64 bins normal mode*, the HGO operates on the three channels independently
  to compute three 64-bins histograms. RGB, YCbCr and HSV image formats are
  supported.
- In *64 bins maximum mode*, the HGO operates on the maximum of the (R, G, B)
  channels to compute a single 64-bins histogram. Only the RGB image format is
  supported.
- In *256 bins normal mode*, the HGO operates on the Y channel to compute a
  single 256-bins histogram. Only the YCbCr image format is supported.
- In *256 bins maximum mode*, the HGO operates on the maximum of the (R, G, B)
  channels to compute a single 256-bins histogram. Only the RGB image format is
  supported.

**Byte Order.**
All data is stored in memory in little endian format. Each cell in the tables
contains one byte.
