estimate_sl_al_lr (Operator)
estimate_sl_al_lr
— Estimate the slant of a light source and the albedo of a surface.
Signature
Description
estimate_sl_al_lr
estimates the Slant
of a
light source, i.e., the angle between the light source and the positive
z-axis, and the albedo of the surface in the input image
Image
, i.e. the percentage of light reflected by the
surface, using the algorithm of Lee and Rosenfeld.
Attention
The Albedo
is assumed constant for the entire surface
depicted in the image.
Execution Information
- Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
- Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
- Automatically parallelized on tuple level.
Parameters
Image
(input_object) singlechannelimage(-array) →
object (byte)
Image for which slant and albedo are to be estimated.
Slant
(output_control) angle.deg(-array) →
(real)
Angle between the light sources and the positive z-axis (in degrees).
Albedo
(output_control) real(-array) →
(real)
Amount of light reflected by the surface.
Result
estimate_sl_al_lr
always returns the value 2 (
H_MSG_TRUE)
.
