1.2. EXAMPLE SESSION 5<br />
Figure 1.2: Selecting ÇÔÖØÓÖ× º ÐØÖ º ËÑÓÓØÒ º ÑÒ Ñ opens an operator dialog<br />
for the operator ÑÒ Ñ. With the help of the opened combo box you may specify a<br />
reasonable value for the filter size.<br />
Now you are able to select the operator ÝÒ ØÖ×ÓÐ and to specify its input parameters.<br />
The value ÁÑÐÐ is used for ÇÖÒÐÁÑ. ÁÑÅÒ is used as the component<br />
to compare (here ÌÖ×ÓÐÁÑ). For the output parameter ÊÓÒÝÒÌÖ× the variable<br />
name remains unchanged (see figure 1.3).<br />
Image pixels touching each other and remaining above the given threshold have to be merged<br />
to single regions. The computation of these connected components is realized by operator<br />
ÓÒÒØÓÒ (menu item ÇÔÖØÓÖ× º ÊÓÒ× º ÌÖÒ×ÓÖÑØÓÒ×). The input region<br />
ÊÓÒÝÒÌÖ× is specified in the text field ÊÓÒ. The output variable’s default name<br />
ÓÒÒØÊÓÒ× is changed to ÓÒÒØÊÓÒ×ÝÒÌÖ×. After the operator’s execution<br />
all resulting regions are stored in this output variable. This shows a great advantage of<br />
HALCON’s tuple philosophy: although you have several different results you do not have to<br />
worry how to handle them. This is done transparently by HALCON. HALCON operators recognize<br />
a tuple type variable and process it accordingly. This results in more compact programs<br />
because you may combine several similar operator calls in one operator.<br />
To obtain a better visualization of the results after calling ÓÒÒØÓÒ you select the menu<br />
Î×ÙÐÞØÓÒ º ÓÐÓÖ. Here you specify the 12 predefined color presentation. Now<br />
every computed region receives one of the 12 colors. This presentation mode is very useful to<br />
indicate each region with a different color. If there are more than 12 regions the system uses<br />
the same color for several different regions. With Ú ×ÔÐÝ of the image ÁÑÐÐ<br />
you refresh the graphics window to see the results of next step much better. Select the menu<br />
ÇÔÖØÓÖ× º ÚÐÓÔ º Ú ×ÔÐÝ.<br />
In the next step you have to specify the regions which correspond to the circular marks of the<br />
