Hi, thank you for the suggestions, I'll check openCv. Can you explain how to use morphological filters to clear up the noise in the image? Are there examples around? Also, could you please explain me better what do you mean with adaptive background subtraction method? Thank you for your time :)

I'm not totally clear on the big picture here but it could be you might save yourself a lot of time and effort doing your blob tracking with Community Core Vision (CCV) then sending the blob data to Pd through OSC. After initially doing my blob tracking in Pd only (which did work), I switched to

morphological filters affect the shape they mostly work on binary images the most common are erode, dilate, close and open algorithm with which you can make a pepper or salt removing filter to remove black or white isolated pixels concerning background subtraction, if you use a fixed background

i tried CCV one time but i had some driver and performance issues moreover, i can't find an easy way to tune the processing chain pd is more flexible but, i agree, could be harder -- do it yourself http://antoine.villeret.free.fr 2013/4/18 John Harrison john.harri...@alum.mit.edu I'm not

FWIW I had just the opposite experience with CCV. CCV has built-in background adaptive subtraction, smoothing, highpass filter, gain, contrast, etc. all tweakable. It also tracks blobs uniquely as the original poster is wanting, which is why I thought of it for their needs. I used

how is it possible to use several cameras, correct perspective on each, make a big picture with blending and then tracking on that big picture with CCV ? this have been done with Pd and pix_opencv and works great (at least if you're not using a cheap V4L2 cam with buggy drivers) -- do it yourself

OK I guess I misunderstood that the original poster was wanting to do all of that. I know the latest CCV supports multiple cameras for some sort of big picture so it may actually do what you are asking but I don't know the details so if you say it doesn't support all of that I'll go with your

concerning the multiple cameras and so on, this was just my need and why i'm not using CCV but be sure that i have nothing against CCV, it could be very useful in lots of context :-) regarding driver, as i remember, i had issue with IIDC cameras but this was few years ago and by cheap i refer to

Re: [PD] Changing array curves with mouse interaction

anyone figured out why sometimes the graph points vertically are sometimes fat and sometimes skinny? I spent the better part of the day before yesterday trying to get mouse editing to snap at integer values and also line up visually over 2 pixel high canvases that were supposed to be 1 pixel.

I'm not sure but I believe that's because of rounding to the nearest pixel. I don't believe Tcl/TK does any anti-aliasing, even if the underlying graphical system does. cheers Miller On Thu, Apr 18, 2013 at 12:30:55PM -0400, Billy Stiltner wrote: anyone figured out why sometimes the graph
