F_VN_LocalMaxima

Find local maxima in a gray-scale single-channel image. The found maxima are marked by a value of 1 in the destination image.

Syntax

Definition:

FUNCTION F_VN_LocalMaxima : HRESULT
VAR_INPUT
    ipSrcImage  : ITcVnImage;
    ipDestImage : Reference To  ITcVnImage;
    hrPrev      : HRESULT;
END_VAR

Inputs

Name	Type	Description
ipSrcImage	ITcVnImage	Source image (USINT or UINT, 1 channel)
ipDestImage	Reference To ITcVnImage	Destination image (Must be different from ipSrcImage! An appropriate destination image will be created if required.)
hrPrev	HRESULT	HRESULT indicating the result of previous operations (If SUCCEEDED(hrPrev) equals false, no operation is executed.)

Return value

HRESULT

Further information

The function F_VN_LocalMaxima finds local maxima in the input image.

Parameter

Input image

The input image ipSrcImage must be a 1-channel grayscale image with a bit depth of 8 or 16 bits (USINT or UINT).

Result image

The result image ipDestImage is of the same type as the input image ipSrcImage. Each local maximum of the input image is marked here by a pixel value of 1.

Application

The finding of local maxima looks like this:

hr := F_VN_LocalMaxima(
    ipSrcImage  :=  ipImageIn,
    ipDestImage :=  ipImageRes,
    hrPrev      :=  hr
);
