Module Name: FrameMgr.c
Module Date: 04/10/2004
Module Auth: John Orlando
Description: This modules is responsible for performing
both medium and high level processing on image data.
This is performed at both the line level as well as
the frame level. It controls the main flow of the
system, adhering to all the critical timing
requirements (such as when serial data can be transferred,
etc).
Revision History:
Date Rel Ver. Notes
4/10/2004 0.1 Module created
6/30/2004 1.0 Initial release for Circuit Cellar
contest.
11/15/2004 1.2 Updated processLine() function so
it will remove objects less than
a specified length/width (reduces
shot noise)
