EdgeDetect-Operator Example
This operator uses an advanced algorithm to detect edges within an image.
In contrary to commonly applied methods (e.g. a simple convolution-matrix)
the detected edges are left in original colors. Furthermore, "weak edges"
can be suppressed adjusting the contrast-value.
Parameters
Name Possible Values/Unit Description
Input STREAM, TEMP1, ..., TEMP8 input buffer
Ouput STREAM, TEMP1, ..., TEMP8 output buffer
Contrast 0...255 minimum "intensity" of edges
Since version 3.74 all numerical parameters are adjusted from within
the Parameter-Settings -Window.
Notes
1) Very small contrast values usually produce no edges but in some
cases very "interesting" images.
2) Nasty "dots" can be removed using the RIP -PlugIn
3) All intensities are measured using luminance weights
