Syntax
sod_img sod_threshold_image(sod_img input, float thresh);
Description
Binarize an input image via fixed thresholding. Other thresholding & edge detection methods includes sod_canny_edge_image(), sod_otsu_binarize_image(), sod_sobel_image(), etc.
Input picture
sod_threshold_image() Output
Parameters
sod_img input
The input image to be thresholded. The image can be loaded from disk using sod_img_load_from_file(), from memory (i.e. network socket) via sod_img_load_from_mem() or dynamically created via sod_make_image().
float thresh
threshold value. If the pixel intensity at a given location is greater than this threshold, the pixel value is set to 1 (i.e. White). Otherwise, it is set to 0 (i.e. Black).
Return Value
Binary image whose pixels have only two possible intensity value (i.e. black or white) is returned in an instance of the sod_img object. if something goes wrong during processing, then an empty image is returned via sod_make_empty_image(). Once done, you must release the memory allocated to this object via sod_free_image() to avoid memory leaks.
