cvCornerHarris

Basic

Module: OpenCV

Harris edge detector.

Name Type Range Description
inImage Image Input single-channel UINT8 or REAL image.
inBlockSize Integer 1 - Neighborhood size.
inApertureSize Integer 1 - 31 Aperture parameter for the Sobel operator, may be 3, 5 or 7.
inK Real Harris detector free parameter.
inBorderType CvBorderType Pixel extrapolation method.
outImage Image Harris detector result image.

Description

The operation detects corners within inImage image using the Harris corner response method. For more information on the method please refer to the DetectCorners_CornerResponse article. outImage is a corner response image of type Real with pixel values from -255 to 255.

Examples

cvCornerHarris performed on the sample image. Output image is rescaled to range [0,255].
