convert mat type from a specific range pixel value?

Hi, I get the depth camera and I want to do some floodfill(). My source image is CV_16S.I have to convert the mat to CV_8U for floodfill(). However, what I interested is only a small range of pixel value, says, the image input is [0,4096] but I only want [2000,3000] convert to [0,255].

I did some threshold and then convert it like:

src.convertTo( dis, CV_8U, 255.0/4096.0 );

I'm not sure whether it is right or wrong so I'm searching some ready-to-use function. I think normalize would do something but it seems that the boundary of source image connot be set up. thanks for any idea.

Here are the steps to follow!

  1. Threshold your input image in the Range 2000-3000;
  2. Convert To 8 bit using the new min max value like this

    double min=2000; double max=3000;

    src.convertTo( dis, CV_8U, 255.0/(max-min), -min);

Hi. You have selected right function for color transformation but lost bias value. For example if you want to make transformation from [min,max] to [0,255] you should call:

src.convertTo( dis, CV_8U, 255.0 / (max - min), min * 255.0 / (min - max) );
