Image Line Profile
This tool allows the user to generate a profile of a line that can
be graphed. The graphing can be done according to color (light against
dark), temperature, etc, depending on the purposes for the tool being
used.
Using the Image Line Profile Tool
In order to use this tool for graphing purposes the user must use it in conjunction with the Plot Curve tool and the Plot Axis tool.
Drag
and Drop the Image Line Profile tool onto the CIF Viewer. Also place it
into the sequence. The ROI image will appear within the viewer. This
can be altered and moved around the picture to whatever location and
orientation is needed. This will capture the image that is to be
plotted once the tool is run. The tool can be used against still images
or against moving images. All other information to be outputted will be
displayed within the tools parameters page. The user may input other
tools to furthur specialize the use of this tool, this is explained
within the inputs.
Once the tool is run to create the graph image the Plot Curve too and the Plot Axis tool will need to be run.Inputs
CIF Viewer: The Viewer that displays the image.
CIF: The input image. CIF stands for "Common Image Format". This is Automation Manager's native graphics format (like .jpg or .bmp).
ROI: "Region
of Interest". By default this is the green rectangle that is placed on
the screen when the tool is selected. Supports most ROI shapes.
Calibration: If
the user needs to calibrate a temperature or thermal reading to graph
changes or progress they may input a calibration finding tool here.
Parameters
Vector: This is what information will be passed to create the graph.
Count: This displays the number of points found.
