#1 Re: Help Me ! » distance from camera to object » 2012-07-12 15:28:02

Hy thanks Bob:)

Well i tried to solve that.

if you see this figure :http://i1069.photobucket.com/albums/u472/tina12354/anglefind-1.png

then cos(60) = base /hypo
       1/2      = 100 / y
       y = 200 cm


and sin(60)     = perpendicular / gypo
      sqrt(3) /2 = x / 200
      sqrt(3)*100 = x
      x = 173 cm.

Is it correct ?
So in think distance from cam to object is 173 cm.
Please correct me if i am wrong .
thanks

Hy All,

I am not understanding this eq in link : http://www.cs.mtu.edu/~shene/COURSES/cs3621/NOTES/geometry/geo-tran.html

, rotating a line Ax + By + C = 0 about the origin a degree brings it to a new equation:

(Acosa - Bsina)x' + (Asina + Bcosa)y' + C = 0

How did he get the equation ? ? ?

Also how did he use this equation  in the above link .
as shown in figure this : http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/853/2drottran.jpg/

How did he combine it to make it translation and rotation ?

Please help me to understand  it thanks

Could any one tell me ?
thanks

Hy all,

Question : Homogeneous Coordinates System

In this link : http://www.cs.mtu.edu/~shene/COURSES/cs3621/NOTES/geometry/homo-coor.html

Its  said that

Without the use of homogeneous coordinates system, it would be difficult to design certain classes of very useful curves and surfaces in computer graphics and computer-aided design

Which meant if we convert Cartesian coordinate to Homogeneous system then we could handle infinity.

Ok then let say we have two point (x ,y) , by converting to homogeneous we will get x/w , y/w then let say w = 0 then it would be infinity . then how  are we dealing with infinity here ?
How are converting infinity . its same as cartesian form.  but yes if the eq is in polynomial form then we could handle infinity .

How is it homogeneous then ?

#10 Re: Help Me ! » Area and perimeter of shapes » 2012-03-18 20:32:24

Let say i have square like as shown in this link,.
http://www.mathsisfun.com/geometry/perimeter.html

In the square we have 4 sides . that meant perimeter is 3 + 7+ 3+ 7 = 15
My question is : what is the area of that square in the link .

In my understanding ,i think that square have 3 columns and 7 rows  which mean the area is 3*7  = 21 pixels is area of that square .

Am i right ?
Please help me to understand it .thanks

Hy all ,

I have two question about area and perimeter .

So first Area :

* Area is the number of pixels within a region.
* And Area can be find as quadtree . but how ?
Say  i have an image 10 * 10 . how  can we find area by representating an image in form of quadtree ?

* How can we find area using polygon vertices ?

Second about Perimeter :

Perimeter is the number pixels in the boundary  of  shape .

let  say i have an square of 4*4 . What's the perimeter of it  ?
and let say i have triangle
like
*
**
***   in the stared triangle, What is the perimeter ?
Please help me to understand ti .
I need to know about these  as soon as possible until tomorrow .
Expecting a good response thanks

Statement:

"delete the vertex whose distance is less than 10 pixels when comparing with next vertex .then we will get one single point. "

What does it mean ?

Does it mean like

Say i have point A and point B

if(distance of A and B < 10) then delete which vertex A or B.?

What does mean by the above quoted statement ?

i dont understand how you get all the points in place in the first place.  Who put down the 3 colored points?
Is the hand flat on to the camera?  Are you neglecting the vanishing point or perspective and using the image as is?

Yes, I found convex hull of my hand contour or have image..
and those circles are convexity defects presented on hand.
And yes its hand from live video. and video is a sequence of images.

This is an image of convex hull of hand plus defect points : http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/818/convexhullanddefect.png/

where
blue circles : start point

green circles : depth points.

I want to define the finger counter from defect points .
Does any one have any idea to get the number of fingers .

Unless we can get the problem down to something like post #6 we will not be able to say anything about the probabilty.
