Member Function Documentation

◆ display() [1/3]

void vpMeTracker::display ( const vpImage< unsigned char > &  I)

Display the moving edge sites with a color corresponding to their state.

  • If green : The vpMeSite is a good point.
  • If blue : The point is removed because of the vpMeSite tracking phase (contrast problem).
  • If purple : The point is removed because of the vpMeSite tracking phase (threshold problem).
  • If red : The point is removed because of the robust method in the virtual visual servoing (M-Estimator problem).
  • If cyan : The point is removed because it's too close to another.
  • Yellow otherwise.
Parameters
I: The image.

inlinestatic
Deprecated:
You should rather use inRoiMask(). Test whether the pixel is inside the region of interest mask. Mask values that are set to true are considered in the tracking.
Parameters
maskMask corresponding to the region of interest in the image or nullptr if not wanted. Mask values that are set to true are considered in the tracking. To disable a pixel, set false.
i: Pixel coordinate along the rows.
j: Pixel coordinate along the columns.

◆ inMeMaskCandidates()

bool vpMeTracker::inMeMaskCandidates ( const vpImage< bool > *  meMaskCandidates,
unsigned int  i,
unsigned int  j 
)
static

Test whether the moving-edge (ME) is inside the mask of ME candidates for the initialization. Mask values that are set to true and their 8 neighbors are considered for the initialization.

Parameters
meMaskCandidatesMask corresponding the ME location in the image or nullptr if not wanted. Mask values that are set to true are considered for the initialization. To disable a pixel, set false.
i: ME coordinate along the rows.
j: ME coordinate along the columns.
