editing OpenCV rgb/hsv values through a visual basic program?

asked 2013-03-25 13:11:46 -0600

Is it possible to edit the RGB and HSV values through a simple Visual Basic program while my opencv object detection program is running (calibration purposes)? if so how would I go about that? The object detection code works and so does my VB program, just need them to talk while both of them are running. Thanks!

Only way I see it happening is by

  • Opening a general txt or xml data file
  • Then open that txt file in OpenCV, write your communication
  • Close txt file in OpenCV
  • Read in data in VB and process
  • Again close the file in VB (due to access rights)
  • Open the changed data in OpenCV

However, you can edit RGB ( remember OpenCV uses BGR ) and HSV values through OpenCV, why go around using VB?

The current project that I am working on requires me to calibrate A LOT (underwater), so I figured if I can make a simple program to take in a picture(preferably camera feed) and auto calibrate colors (or manual adjustments) and auto update the BGR/HSV variables (thanks for the correction), then that would make my life so much easier. If you guys see an easier way of doing this, then by all means, I am very open to suggestions. Thank you for your input.

Actually, what you should do, is calibrate for a scene, then shoot pictures, then recalibrate. And this can be implemented in OpenCV I guess by looking at the calibration library. I would not suggest going to manual adaptation of the values each time. Once calibration is correct, colours should have correct values.
