In my previous post we discussed using OpenCV to prepare images for blob detection. We will build upon that foundation by using cvBlobsLib to process our binary images for blobs. A C++ vector object will store our blobs, and the center points and axis-aligned bounding boxes will be computed for each element in this vector. …
In this post I will discuss how you can capture and process images in preparation for blob detection. A future post will discuss the process of detecting and tracking blobs as well as fiducials, but here we are concerned with extracting clean binary images that will be passed to our detector module. We will use …
