currently I'm making an app where user will detect green colors. I use this photo for testing:
My problem is that I can not detect any green pixel. Before I worked with blue color and everything worked fine. Now I can't detect anything though I tried different combinations of RGB
. I wanted to know whether it's problem with green or my detection range, so I made an image in paint using (0, 255, 0)
and it worked. Why it can't see this circle then? I use this code for detection:
Core.inRange(hsv_image, new Scalar([I change this value]), new Scalar(60, 255, 255), ultimate_blue);
It could have been that I set wrong Range, but I use Photoshop to get color of one of green pixels and convert RGB
value of it into HSV
. Yet it doesn't work. It don't detect even pixel that I've sampled. What's wrong? Thanks in advance.
Using Miki's answer:
Green color is HSV space has H = 120 and it's in range [0, 360].
OpenCV halves the H values to fit the range [0,255], so H value instead of being in range [0, 360], is in range [0, 180]. S and V are still in range [0, 255].
As a consequence, the value of H for green is 60 = 120 / 2.
You upper and lower bound should be:
// sensitivity is a int, typically set to 15 - 20
[60 - sensitivity, 100, 100]
[60 + sensitivity, 255, 255]
UPDATE
Since your image is quite dark, you need to use a lower bound for V. With these values:
sensitivity = 15;
[60 - sensitivity, 100, 50] // lower bound
[60 + sensitivity, 255, 255] // upper bound
the resulting mask would be like:
