Hi Marco,

Hi :)

I haven't done any vision processing yet, but plan to get into it sometime
this summer.

Well, when you do, please keep us posted of your findings.
I'll try and do the same, time permiting.

In the meantime, I've been casually scanning the web for related sites.
Here's one you may find useful:
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs/project/cil/ftp/html/vision.html

This is a great site about the subject.
I even found a image processing entry from a Portuguese University :)

I'm going to analise it more carefully, but for now, the real-time video
analisys examples I've seen are all comercial apps or demos.

I'm thinking of giving MS "vision" SDK a try...
(don't remember the proper name of the SDK)

If someone knows of other resources for source-code examples of computer
vision (real-time video analisys, video frame grabbing, etc), please let us
know.

David Leeper (hopes this helps)

Yes, thxs ! :)

Has anyone done a PC-side program to do some video analisys, resulting in
op-code sending to RCX/CyberMaster action control ?

I want to do a "target" follower PC program, sending op-codes to my pBrick
(CyberMaster) to control the X and Y rotation of a video camera.

I'm still waiting for an European version of XCam, so I'll do the first
tests with a camcorder connected to my ATI All-in-Wonder PRO video-in.

*First* I'll have to deal with the video frame grabbing, and frame
analisys, so the program can detect the moving of a specified target, and
instruct the pBrick acordingly to rotate the video-cam so that the target
stays within the center of the image.

er... has anyone done such a thing ?

Are there any source-code examples or how-to's ?

thxs :)

Ok, found something very interesting ! (URL) FindMovingBlob seems perfect for controlling a Video Camera with a PC controlled pBrick. Look it in: (URL) going to try to test/investigate Pong Suvan's software :) Oh, and Microsoft Vision SDK is on: (...) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)

I am a proponent for HALCON from mvtec.com. Although I have to admit that I am biased, as I have used HALCON during my thesis, its a very powerful environment. The number of available operators ranges from simple low-level image processing to (...) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi Reimer, I've seen HALCON listed in (URL) checking Pong Suvan's software/dll's, I was going to check a couple more site's, HALCON's included :) Just downloaded ((URL) and tested the apps done by Pong Suvan to test/use/demonstrate his DLL's.

After checking Pong Suvan's apps/lib ((URL) checked HALCON 5.2 ((URL) as was my intention. HALCON looks like a very powerfull, well documented, well done and easy to use (through HDeveloper and/or the COM version) software package. Now, correct me (...) (25 years ago, 4-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics)

Marco: You are correct that Halcon is a commercial offering. I understand that it is very highly regarded. One of the Premier offerings in the arena of Machine Vision is NIH Image, which is(or was) in the public domain. You can find it at: (URL) (...) (25 years ago, 4-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics)
