Here are some infos about the hardware and the Gam Boy Camera images that drive the library construction:

• the CMOS sensor of the camera cartridge is only 128x128 pixels but the images are cropped to 128x112 pixels. This means all images are Nintendo borderless.

• the image can be framed with a Nintendo border increasing the image size to 160x144 pixels.

• the images use a 4-grayscale palette:
