Subject to change without prior notice.
Edge threshold
The edge strength is calculated using a local image gradient filter. An image gradient is a
directional change in the intensity in an image.
Edge strength/threshold - difference between edge intensity and background Intensity
(Contrast)
Significant edges – this value can be greater (black on white and vice versa).
Weak edges - the value should be lesser (black on dark gray and vice versa).
The default value is 50.
Increase the default value for very sharp and high-contrast edges.
Reduce the default value for lower contrast edge.
Downsample factor
Sets how many times the image is downscaled before the object search is performed. If
there is trouble on finding the object or if teach process fails, it is advisable to reduce the
value; recommended values are from 4 to 10.
This feature sets the downsample factor in x & y dimensions of the image. If the original
image has (M, N) size, the downsample image has (M/d, N/d), where d is the downsample
factor.
Increasing this value will reduce the computation time, but will also reduce the
accuracy.
You may use a higher downsample factor for clean scenes with minimum background
clutter. Decrease the value, if you encounter teach failures or when not finding the edge.
