Documentation of the API for CWIMAQControls

I am a software developer with several years of experience in medicine and other sciences, but now is working on a software project using National Instruments IMAQ customer in .NET and have no prior experience with image processing.  The only I can find the API documentation is a help file with the product intalled.  Then this under did a good job explaining the service inputs and outputs, it is light on the explanation in a real retail functions actually do.  Under .NET (not my favorite but this is what I got), I can get a good summary of the objects and their properties / methods, which is useful.  I see there are a lot of good material in this forum, but what I need right now is good basic documentation.  I also noted a plethora of PDF files in the directory of installation but found nothing there or on ni.com which gives me the level detail fo I need.  When I think that the documentation of the API, I expect something as complete what Sun Microsystems offers with any JDK Java - it seems that the doc API IMAQ assumes a certain level of ease and does not for someone like me come with literally no background outside a lot of math (algebra of vector fortunately!) and science in College courses.

Am I missing something?  I see that there are many examples of programs and I can get what want from those, I guess, but I do not charge my client for all the time it will take, if there is a more ready fo source information.

Now, I realize that the field of the treatment of the image is large and it would be difficult to develop a software of this nature without a learning curve.  So I have

I studied through two web queries image processing and having bought the book 'Digital Image Processing (Gonzalez, wood).

Specifically, I was put to zero in on what is needed for the task at hand: "blob detection" and "blob tracking movement."  It seems pretty clear to me, some have become familiar with the image processing basic terminology and methodologies that have been developed for tracking, and image recognition of movement IMAQ software can do what it takes.  At this point, I can do basic things with objects presented in .NET.  It is analogous to maybe ask a kid who just the definition of an equilateral triangle to solve differential equations.

In this case, what I really need is one or more examples of programs that perform functions similar to what I want to do.  Is there any suggestions in this regard?  My research on ni.com revealed evidence of the items of "blob detection" and "blob motion" and I see that these were used for tasks as complex as the particles of follow-up and the counting of blood components.  I don't see and od you expect not to see any object, follow also specific methods than what I need to do - which is in fact quite abstract - and chart the path of the blob more to light to the camera image gained when it moves in real time.

It's a strange feeling to have been programming for decades, and then enter a field where the customer needs require me to act as a nini who has not done its homework.  But it's the nature of the job.  The pointers will be appreciated.  If I missed something obvious I don't even mind being reprimanded to be unobservant or lazy.

Thank you very much in advance for any assistance that may be provided.

tsfarrell-

Have you looked at the manual of the Vision Concept?  (it should be in the form of PDF in the documentation directory, or you can see it here) It has a more detailed description on what our algorithms.

We also ship many examples for .NET - those of the 2. Functions\Binary analysis file dealing with blob detection and may be useful.

Good luck to you on your application!

    I use the CS6 pdf here:

    Something like this (obsolete I think and not AE, just an example):

    API documentation

    Suppose I want to know what I can do with an ItemCollection. Then look for 'ItemCollection' in the pdf file gives me results too much

    take care in a fast way. Rising ItemCollection in the data browser don't gve me any info either, but

    Maybe I'm not looking to the ItemCollection right in there? It's just an example of course,

    that goes for all Classes.

    Hi Jeff,

    I use the two tools you are mentioning and most of the time it's very good.

    Two things:

    (1) for the navigation data ESTK, you should watch an ItemCollection instance, not the constructor function itself.

    For example:

    var items = app.project.items;

    set a breakpoint here and look in the properties and methods of the variable browser 'elements '.

    (2) and the pdf file is well organized, there bookmark/table of contents, so that you reach the ItemCollection paragraph fast enough, without using the search function.

    I use the PDF for generic things (for example, find of objects properties/methods) and the data browser for specific information about a specific object (for example: get the real value of the property, is this group who failed?, is this 'set name' layer? etc.): not the same use.

    Xavier.

    If I had to * guess *, everyone works on Vitosha boulevard, so we * could * get a SDK for AIR update after that and * possibly * some updates to the API and the new features. That * could * happen later this summer/fall.

  • vAPI documentation for com_vmware_cis_tagging_tag missing in the api Explorer.

    Is there something missing from the API for com_vmware_cis_tagging_tag Explorer?  It seems to be the scriptable object, what do you use for the tag Manager, but I don't see any documentation.  I see the snippet below (from the example of workflow to the list of tags), it has a method. list(), but I don't know what the other properties or methods might be available.

    Actually, I guess I should add that it is really not any documentation on the plugin from vAPI in the api Explorer or in the vRO documentation.  The docs are only very light on the configuration of the plugin and although they list all the types of objects there is no documentation for each of the scriptable objects that I see.  I will have to go to the rest api and browse and see if I can give a certain sense.  It is scriptable only objects that have info

    When you import metamodele vAPI, you should get a bunch of objects script vRO, generated automatically for all the services/structures/enumerations vAPI. Documentation of vAPI is also extracted from metadata of vAPI and attached to these objects of scripts.

    It seems that for some reason API explore has not picked up objects automatically generated scripts. You can try the following:

    (1) restart the vRO service and check again if the scripting objects are displayed in the API Explorer

    (2) If after reboot objects are still not included, try to run some of the flow of the sample which requires vAPI point endpoint to be browsed and selected as input, for example, "list all services of the metamodel. When the workflow is completed, open API Explorer again and check if items are there.

  • How to access the api new Shape3D from OpenJDK for FX8?

    Good so I'm basically trying to understand how to use it.

    http://mail.OpenJDK.Java.NET/pipermail/openjfx-dev/2013-February/005897.html

    I downloaded it and I am able to open and view the documentation of the api, but I can't apply it.

    I use NetbeansLamba8 8 JDK and JRE 8. Inside of netbeans in the region of JavaFX for the JavaDoc, I changed the link oracle with the link in the folder I was using and not luck.

    Basically I'm just starting to use the 3D API, and it is important, then I wanted to start using it as soon as POSSIBLE.


    There was an article on how to 'Build the JDK open', but he talked about Netbeans, Eclipse, etc. before you have a certain type of cmd of the building line. I think I'll of course all of this, just trying to figure out why the docs do not work... Even when I turn it on it still shows the old API (weird). I'm not to change the correct path?

    Not too sure how to apply the new API, any help would be appreciated!

I did a search for OIA API could not find, help me find the details of OIA API for custom ETL work planning.

    There is no such API exposed by OIA. However, because it uses the quartz Scheduler, you can find something useful if you look at the documentation of the API of quartz. Quartz is open source so just google it.
