Axis M1101 Distance Measure error

[Tom Line]

Greg,
A quick perusal of the vision code leads me to believe it relies on the width of the target to figure out distance. Isn't this effected by the angle you are to the target? For instance, from one side or the other, won't you get a misleading distance reading?

[Greg McKaskle]

Correct. The example showed how to use a known value, and a measured value, and the view angle of the lens to estimate distance. Changing the code to use the vertical, or perhaps even multiple vertical values was left to the end-user.

It wasn't clear that the variation mentioned above was due to view angles. Perhaps it is. Photos will tell for sure.
