# Differential Optical Flow Translation
#
# This example shows off using your OpenMV Cam to measure translation
# in the X and Y direction by comparing the current and the previous
# image against each other. Note that only X and Y translation is
# handled - not rotation/scale in this mode.
#
# To run this demo effectively please mount your OpenMV Cam on a steady
# base and QUICKLY translate it to the left, right, up, and down and
# watch the numbers change. Note that you can see displacement numbers
# up +- half of the hoizontal and vertical resolution.
#
# NOTE You have to use a small power of 2 resolution when using
# find_displacement(). This is because the algorithm is powered by
# something called phase correlation which does the image comparison
# using FFTs. A non-power of 2 resolution requires padding to a power
# of 2 which reduces the usefulness of the algorithm results. Please
# use a resolution like B64X64 or B64X32 (2x faster).
#
# Your OpenMV Cam supports power of 2 resolutions of 64x32, 64x64,
# 128x64, and 128x128. If you want a resolution of 32x32 you can create
# it by doing "img.scale(x_scale=0.5, y_scale=0.5, hint=image.AREA)" on a 64x64 image.
