Re : [Q] Can Vision track more than one object in a same area - objects that might cross?

Hi,

Sorry for that long title, but that's my question.

Can Vision track more than one object in a same area - objects that might cross?

Because I'm able to do it, extracting XY, but it looks like "IMAQ Count Objects" doesn't track object frame after but frame, but extract the XY coordinates always in the same way, like example starting from top and everytime he sees an object, he extracts the XY, but if the objects cross (then he will extract XY without caring which objects was the previous one but just based on "scan from top to bottom").

This is why I opened this topic in the non Vision forum part : http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Sort-XY-by-closest/td-p/2440428

Thank you,

Sébastien

Hi,

In fact, IMAQ count object order the object regarding their top most and left most pixel, but not regarding their gravity center point.

Axis origin of an image is situated on the left top corner.

You need to refer to other caracteristics such as shape or color to identify your objects.

Thank you for your reply.

My problem is that we are working with really small insects and the shape/color is the same for all.

Solution is then : Let's wait for "IMAQ Count Objects 3" then :).

Thanks,

Sébastien
