Double Buffer Acquisition

To improve the chance of processing an unaltered image buffer, the user may wish to use the double buffer technique. He simply chooses to define a cluster with two surfaces, which automatically implements this technique.

Double buffer acquisition

The technique is useful as long as the processing task is shorter than the period separating successive acquisition phases.

In the case of a processing task taking more time, there still exists a risk of surface alteration sourced by two distinct acquisition phases.
