What is blob detection in Opencv?
A Blob is a group of connected pixels in an image that share some common property ( E.g, grayscale value ). In the image above, the dark connected regions are blobs, and blob detection aims to identify and mark these regions.
How do you detect a Blob?
A natural approach to detect blobs is to associate a bright (dark) blob with each local maximum (minimum) in the intensity landscape. A main problem with such an approach, however, is that local extrema are very sensitive to noise.
What are blobs in image processing?
A blob refers to a lump. Blob analysis is image processing's most basic method for analyzing the shape features of an object, such as the presence, number, area, position, length, and direction of lumps.
