#ifndef LOBOT_DEFAULT_FALLBACKS_DOT_H
#define LOBOT_DEFAULT_FALLBACKS_DOT_H

//------------------------------ HEADERS --------------------------------

// lobot headers
#include "Robots/LoBot/misc/LoRegistry.H"

// INVT headers
#include "Image/Dims.H"

//----------------------- CONFIG FILE DEFAULTS --------------------------

// lobot supports a single command-line option, viz., --config-file. All
// other settings must be specified in this file.
//
// If the user does not supply the --config-file option explicitly on the
// command line, lobot will fall back to looking for this all-important
// file in the user's home directory under the following name.
#ifndef LOBOT_DEFAULT_CONFIG_FILE_NAME
   #define LOBOT_DEFAULT_CONFIG_FILE_NAME ".lobotrc"
#endif

//---------------------- FRAME GRABBING DEFAULTS ------------------------

// lobot can grab frames from FireWire cameras at one of two resolutions,
// viz., 160x120 and 320x240 (because lobot was originally written to
// work with Unibrain Fire-i cameras, which grab at 30 fps at these two
// resolutions).
//
// If the user does not explicitly set the video frame grab size in the
// lobot config file, we will fall back to using the following defaults.
#ifndef LOBOT_DEFAULT_GRAB_WIDTH
   #define LOBOT_DEFAULT_GRAB_WIDTH 320
#endif
#ifndef LOBOT_DEFAULT_GRAB_HEIGHT
   #define LOBOT_DEFAULT_GRAB_HEIGHT 240
#endif

// This is a convenience macro that puts the above two dimensions
// together in a Dims object.
#define LOBOT_DEFAULT_GRAB_SIZE Dims(LOBOT_DEFAULT_GRAB_WIDTH, \
                                     LOBOT_DEFAULT_GRAB_HEIGHT)

// lobot can grab frames at several different rates (as supported by
// libdc1394). This one is the default frame rate in case it is not
// explicitly specified in the config file.
//
// NOTE: Though several frame rates are supported, not all combinations
// of frame rate and size may work together.
#ifndef LOBOT_DEFAULT_GRAB_RATE
   #define LOBOT_DEFAULT_GRAB_RATE 30.0f
#endif

//--------------------------- LOCUST MODELS -----------------------------

// lobot supports several different LGMD models. The following symbol
// defines the default one to use in case the user doesn't specify this
// in the config file.
#define LOBOT_DEFAULT_LOCUST_MODEL LOLM_GABBIANI

// Each virtual locust monitors some portion of the entire input image
// combined from all the video sources. How much of the image a locust
// should monitor is specified via its FOV setting. This is the width (in
// pixels) of the portion of the input image each locust should monitor.
// The vertical extents of each locust's portion always spans the entire
// height of the input image.
//
// The following symbol specifies the default width of a locust's FOV in
// case users don't set it in the config file. Each LGMD model can use a
// different value for the locust FOV. Users may achieve this by
// specifying the appropriate setting in each LGMD model's section of the
// config file.
#ifndef LOBOT_DEFAULT_LOCUST_FOV
   #define LOBOT_DEFAULT_LOCUST_FOV 30
