This program can be used to convert image files between the formats supported by FireVision. The supported formats are unformatted raw, FireVision raw, JPEG, PNG, and PNM. The unformatted raw format is a file that contains the byte stream of an image from a camera as-is, without any further information or file header. FireVision raw format adds a header with some information.

In case of an input image which is not unformatted raw, the simple first form of the command must be used. For unformatted raw the second format must be used. Unformatted raw may not be the output image format.

The filetype of the input file is inferred by the file content. The format of the output file is determined by the extension of the output file. It must be raw, jpeg or jpg, png, or pnm for the respective output format. Raw is always FireVision raw format.

If called without any parameters the usage instructions are displayed.

-c colorspace
