I am trying to run the HDR processing code distributed with opencv3.2.0. The process fails with the following error
OpenCV Error: Assertion failed (!images.empty()) in cv::checkImageDimensions, file C:\build\master_winpack-build-win64-vc14\opencv\modules\photo\src\hdr_common.cpp, line 51
I have read previous answers related to this error, but I am not able to get past this problem. images is a vector of png images. I have verified that the vector is not empty. I have tried using absolute and relative paths for command line input. I have also tried sending an empty vector of images. The error is the same. Here is my code with debug statements followed by the output. Thanks in advance for any help.
