The main module of iRHEED is the camera module. It displays the live camera image or the playback stream of the harddisk recorder. Harddisk recording can be started or stopped at any time using the record button. Several tools allow the creation and modification of rectangular sensor areas for the point scan module. Camera settings allow you to modify the exposure time and thereby the frame rate of the camera. User definable false color representation of the camera image enhances low intensity features detected by the high dynamic range camera.
