GradeQRCode

Grades a QR code according to ISO / IEC 15415:2011. Requires uniform illumination, good focus and the image sensor plane parallel to the code plane to achieve meaningful results.

Syntax

Definition:

HRESULT GradeQRCode(
    HRESULT           hrPrev,
    ITcVnImage*       ipSrcImage,
    ITcVnContainer*&  ipDecodedData,
    TcVnCodeGradesQR& stCodeGrades,
    float             fModuleWidth,
    float&            fAngleDeg,
    ITcVnImage**      pipResultVisualization = nullptr,
    ITcVnContainer**  pipMarginGrades = nullptr,
    ITcVnContainer**  pipContour = nullptr
)

Parameters

Name	Type	Default	Description
hrPrev	HRESULT		HRESULT indicating the result of previous operations (If SUCCEEDED(hrPrev) equals false, no operation is executed.)
ipSrcImage	ITcVnImage*		Source image, only containing the QR code region (USINT, 1 channel, including quiet zone)
ipDecodedData	ITcVnContainer*&		Returns the decoded data (ContainerType_String_SINT)
stCodeGrades	TcVnCodeGradesQR&		Returns the code grades in the range from 0 (very bad) to 4 (very good)
fModuleWidth	float		Minimum module width of the code in the image (in pixels). Must be at least 3, preferably 5 - 8.
fAngleDeg	float&		Returns the clockwise rotation angle in degree
pipResultVisualization	ITcVnImage**	nullptr	Returns a visualization of the scan grid (optional, set to 0 if not required). Module margin grades are color coded: >= 3 as green, >= 2 as light blue, >= 1 as orange, < 1 as red
pipMarginGrades	ITcVnContainer**	nullptr	Returns the individual margin grade for each module, e.g. to create a custom visualization (optional, set to 0 if not required; ContainerType_Vector_TcVnVector3_REAL, containing [x-position, y-position, grade])
pipContour	ITcVnContainer**	nullptr	Returns the 4 code corner points, excluding the quiet zone (optional, set to 0 if not required; ContainerType_Vector_TcVnPoint2_DINT)
