Method Detail

getNumberParticles

public int getNumberParticles()
                       throws NIVisionException

Returns the number of particles.

Returns:

The number of particles

Throws:

NIVisionException

getParticleAnalysisReport

public ParticleAnalysisReport getParticleAnalysisReport(int index)
                                                 throws NIVisionException

Get a particle analysis report for the particle at the given index.

Parameters:

index - The index of the particle to report on.

Returns:

The ParticleAnalysisReport for the particle at the given index

Throws:

NIVisionException

getOrderedParticleAnalysisReports

public ParticleAnalysisReport[] getOrderedParticleAnalysisReports(int size)
                                                           throws NIVisionException

Gets all the particle analysis reports ordered from largest area to smallest.

Parameters:

size - The number of particles to return

Returns:

An array of ParticleReports from largest area to smallest

Throws:

NIVisionException

getOrderedParticleAnalysisReports

public ParticleAnalysisReport[] getOrderedParticleAnalysisReports()
                                                           throws NIVisionException

Gets all the particle analysis reports ordered from largest area to smallest.

Returns:

An array of ParticleReports from largest are to smallest

Throws:

NIVisionException

write

public void write(String fileName)
           throws NIVisionException

Description copied from class: Image

Write the image to a file. Supported extensions: .aipd or .apd AIPD .bmp BMP .jpg or .jpeg JPEG .jp2 JPEG2000 .png PNG .tif or .tiff TIFF

Overrides:

write in class Image

Parameters:

fileName - The path to write the image to.

Throws:

NIVisionException

removeSmallObjects

public BinaryImage removeSmallObjects(boolean connectivity8,
                                      int erosions)
                               throws NIVisionException

removeSmallObjects filters particles based on their size. The algorithm erodes the image a specified number of times and keeps the particles from the original image that remain in the eroded image.

Parameters:

connectivity8 - true to use connectivity-8 or false for connectivity-4 to determine whether particles are touching. For more information about connectivity, see Chapter 9, Binary Morphology, in the NI Vision Concepts manual.

erosions - the number of erosions to perform

Returns:

a BinaryImage after applying the filter

Throws:

NIVisionException

removeLargeObjects

public BinaryImage removeLargeObjects(boolean connectivity8,
                                      int erosions)
                               throws NIVisionException

removeLargeObjects filters particles based on their size. The algorithm erodes the image a specified number of times and discards the particles from the original image that remain in the eroded image.

Parameters:

connectivity8 - true to use connectivity-8 or false for connectivity-4 to determine whether particles are touching. For more information about connectivity, see Chapter 9, Binary Morphology, in the NI Vision Concepts manual.

erosions - the number of erosions to perform

Returns:

a BinaryImage after applying the filter

Throws:

NIVisionException

convexHull

public BinaryImage convexHull(boolean connectivity8)
                       throws NIVisionException

Throws:

NIVisionException

particleFilter

public BinaryImage particleFilter(CriteriaCollection criteria)
                           throws NIVisionException

Throws:

NIVisionException
