Blob analysis for robust machine vision

With a comprehensive collection of operators, MVTec enables flexible and efficient segmentation and analysis of various object features. 

Developers can define blobs of any shape – including non-connected ones – as Regions of Interest (ROIs) and use them for subsequent image processing steps. This significantly reduces computational effort and increases efficiency and execution speed compared to standard shapes like polygons or circles.

Blob analysis is performed in milliseconds, even with complex images containing overlapping objects. A variety of segmentation methods are available, including hysteresis, local, binary, or standard thresholding techniques. Additionally, the software offers more than 20 other segmentation operators. For analysis, around 50 shape and grayscale features are available, including area, orientation, or center of mass.
