set_metrology_model_param — Set parameters that are valid for the entire metrology model.
set_metrology_model_param( : : MetrologyHandle, GenParamName, GenParamValue : )
set_metrology_model_param sets or changes parameters that are valid for the entire metrology model MetrologyHandle.
For an explanation of the concept of 2D metrology see the introduction of chapter 2D Metrology.
The following values for GenParamName and GenParamValue are possible:
If both internal camera parameters and the 3D pose of the measurement plane are set, apply_metrology_model calculates the results in metric coordinates.
Often the internal camera parameters are the result of calibrating the camera with the operator calibrate_cameras (see calibrate_cameras for the sequence of the parameters and the underlying camera model). It is possible to discard the internal camera parameters by setting 'camera_param' to [].
Default value: []
The 3D pose of the measurement plane in camera coordinates. It is possible to discard the pose by setting 'plane_pose' to [].
Default value: []
When adding the metrology objects to the metrology model using e.g. add_metrology_object_generic, add_metrology_object_circle_measure etc. the positions and orientations are given with respect to the image coordinate system which has its origin in the upper left corner of the image. In some cases it may be necessary to change the reference system with respect to which the metrology objects are given. This is for instance the case when using a shape model to align the metrology model in a new image. The results from find_shape_model can only be directly used in align_metrology_model if the reference system of the metrology model is the same as the system in which the shape model is given (see align_metrology_model for more details).
The tuple given in GenParamValue should contain [row, column, angle]. By default the reference system is the image coordinate system which has its origin in the top left corner. A new reference system is defined with respect to the image coordinate system by its translation (row,colum) and its rotation angle (angle). All components of the metrology model are converted into the new reference coordinate system. In the following figure, the reference system of the metrology model is set to the center of the image.
set_metrology_model_param (MetrologyHandle, 'reference_system', [Height/2,Width/2,0])
| (1) | (2) |
Default value: [0, 0, 0]
The results of the measurement queried by get_metrology_object_result can be scaled by setting a scaling factor.
The parameter 'scale' must be specified as the ratio of the desired unit to the original unit. If no camera parameters are given, the default unit is pixel.
If 'camera_param' and 'plane_pose' are set, the original unit is determined by the coordinates of the calibration object. Standard HALCON calibration plates are defined in metric coordinates. If it was used for the calibration, the desired unit can be set directly. The relation of units to scaling factors is given in the following table:
| Unit | Scaling factor |
|---|---|
| m | 1 |
| dm | 10 |
| cm | 100 |
| mm | 1000 |
| µm, microns | 1e6 |
List of values: 1.0, 0.1, 'm', 'cm', 'mm', 'microns', 'um'
Default value: 1.0
This operator modifies the state of the following input parameter:
The value of this parameter may not be shared across multiple threads without external synchronization.Handle of the metrology model.
Name of the generic parameter.
Default value: 'camera_param'
List of values: 'camera_param', 'plane_pose', 'reference_system', 'scale'
Value of the generic parameter.
Default value: []
Suggested values: 1.0, 0.1, 'm', 'cm', 'mm', 'microns', 'um'
If the parameters are valid, the operator set_metrology_model_param returns the value 2 (H_MSG_TRUE). If necessary, an exception is raised.
