contours



Hi everybody,
I try to identify the pixel coordinates of that point in the red circle inside the image posted above.



After applying all the following steps to my initial image, I ended with the result of cv2.findContours() which -depending on the image- contains sometimes around 50 contours.



image = cv2.cvtColor(image, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
dilation = cv2.dilate(image, (3, 3), iterations=3)
image = cv2.medianBlur(image, 9)
canny_output = cv2.Canny(image, 130, 255)
roi_upper = canny_output[1:151, 1:w]
im, contours, hierarchy = cv2.findContours(roi_upper.copy(), cv2.RETR_TREE, cv2.CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE)


I think about iterating through all pixels from all arrays in contours, finding the closest ones to the upper margin (smallest y for a given pixel), put them in a list and afterwards finding the biggest one in this list.
Being an absolute novice I don't know if this is the right way to go. And if is, how to do that?



Can someone help, please? Regards,



edit: I can't post images?? only a link?

  • It's the wrong way to go. I will extract everything directly from Canny which is a ndarray 3d.
