Re: Camera code does not recognize target

Thanks for the suggestions. I looked up the Whitepaper and will try some variations. Although I had a little time last night I did not get very far and it will be a few days before I again have a set up where I can play with the camera. I also looked at the LabView code to see how it differed and noticed they were using a different compression and brightness (and possibly minimum line length).

We did notice that when the target analysis drew a purple display circle around the target that the normalized score was too low to be considered a target. So if we lowered the minimum score we could of course get it to detect the target, but I doubt that is the best way to go since that would likely find extraneous things too. I think we were probably about 10 to 12 feet away from the target and we may get better results in general when we are farther away. Again we still have a lot of things to check out.

I will post again when I have some more information. But if anyone else has been playing with this issue it would be great to know what they found to work best.
