coordinates of two images

[adelina]

Hi,I need to find the coordinates of two images to find the differences between them to see if they shift or not.

Please clarify in more detail what you are trying to do? Do you want the coordinates of every pixel that are different between two same size images? Or are you trying to find the best match of a smaller image where it matches best inside a larger image?

For the latter, see

compare -metric rmse -subimage-search largeimage smallimage resultimages

where resultimages will be either two image -0 and -1 or two frames (but you only specify the name), depending upon format. The second image will be the match score result and the brightest pixel will be the location of the best match. The best match will also be returned as text to the terminal.

see example at viewtopic.php?f=1&t=14613&p=51076&hilit ... ric#p51076 but note that since then the -subimage-search needs to be added to the command


For the former, see http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/compare/

Once you get the red/white image or black/white image (see examples above), you can convert that image to txt format to get all the say red value coordinates. see http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/files/#txt

convert red_white_image txt:- | grep "red"

convert red_white_image txt:- | grep "red"

This may not work with a normal "compare" image result. The color is not pure red, but a red tint of one of the images.

convert red_white_image txt:- | grep "red"

I understand. That is why I specifically pointed to your processing to extract the binary mask as either red/white or black/white.

Fair enough...

I just wanted to point out the 'normal' compare is not pure red-white or black-white, as it did not seem clear.

OK. Thanks. Fair enough.
