Description

IMAQ_AUTOM 0 The function uses a transformation that generates simpler particles that contain fewer details.
IMAQ_CLOSE 1 The function uses a transformation that fills tiny holes and smooths boundaries.
IMAQ_DILATE 2 The function uses a transformation that eliminates tiny holes isolated in particles and expands the contour of the particles according to the template defined by the structuring element.
IMAQ_ERODE 3 The function uses a transformation that eliminates pixels isolated in the background and erodes the contour of particles according to the template defined by the structuring element.
IMAQ_GRADIENT 4 The function uses a transformation that leaves only the pixels that would be added by the dilation process or eliminated by the erosion process.
IMAQ_GRADIENTOUT 5 The function uses a transformation that leaves only the pixels that would be added by the dilation process.
IMAQ_GRADIENTIN 6 The function uses a transformation that leaves only the pixels that would be eliminated by the erosion process.
IMAQ_HITMISS 7 The function uses a transformation that extracts each pixel located in a neighborhood exactly matching the template defined by the structuring element.
IMAQ_OPEN 8 The function uses a transformation that removes small particles and smooths boundaries.
IMAQ_PCLOSE 9 The function uses a transformation that fills tiny holes and smooths the inner contour of particles according to the template defined by the structuring element.
IMAQ_POPEN 10 The function uses a transformation that removes small particles and smooths the contour of particles according to the template defined by the structuring element.
IMAQ_THICK 11 The function uses a transformation that adds to an image those pixels located in a neighborhood that matches a template specified by the structuring element.
IMAQ_THIN 12 The function uses a transformation that eliminates pixels that are located in a neighborhood matching a template specified by the structuring element.
