Opencv Data Member Assignment and cout not working problem

[galvatron]

Hello there,


I'm new to Open CV (and EZ) and I was trying to download a source code from the blog for testing. http://opencv-srf.blogspot.in/2010/09/object-detection-using-color-seperation.html

Code: [Select]

#include <iostream>
#include "opencv2/highgui/highgui.hpp"
#include "opencv2/imgproc/imgproc.hpp"


using namespace cv;
using namespace std;


 int main( int argc, char** argv )
 {
//cout << "Start\n";
    VideoCapture cap(1); //capture the video from webcam


    if ( !cap.isOpened() )  // if not success, exit program
    {
         cout << "Cannot open the web cam" << endl;
         return -71;
    }


    namedWindow("Control", CV_WINDOW_AUTOSIZE); //create a window called "Control"


  int iLowH = 170;
 int iHighH = 179;


  int iLowS = 150;
 int iHighS = 255;


  int iLowV = 60;
 int iHighV = 255;


  //Create trackbars in "Control" window
 createTrackbar("LowH", "Control", &iLowH, 179); //Hue (0 - 179)
 createTrackbar("HighH", "Control", &iHighH, 179);


  createTrackbar("LowS", "Control", &iLowS, 255); //Saturation (0 - 255)
 createTrackbar("HighS", "Control", &iHighS, 255);


  createTrackbar("LowV", "Control", &iLowV, 255);//Value (0 - 255)
 createTrackbar("HighV", "Control", &iHighV, 255);


  int iLastX = -1;
 int iLastY = -1;


  //Capture a temporary image from the camera
 Mat imgTmp;
 cap.read(imgTmp);


  //Create a black image with the size as the camera output
 Mat imgLines = Mat::zeros( imgTmp.size(), CV_8UC3 );
 


    while (true)
    {
        Mat imgOriginal;


        bool bSuccess = cap.read(imgOriginal); // read a new frame from video




         if (!bSuccess) //if not success, break loop
        {
             cout << "Cannot read a frame from video stream" << endl;
             break;
        }


    Mat imgHSV;


   cvtColor(imgOriginal, imgHSV, COLOR_BGR2HSV); //Convert the captured frame from BGR to HSV
 
  Mat imgThresholded;


   inRange(imgHSV, Scalar(iLowH, iLowS, iLowV), Scalar(iHighH, iHighS, iHighV), imgThresholded); //Threshold the image
     
  //morphological opening (removes small objects from the foreground)
  erode(imgThresholded, imgThresholded, getStructuringElement(MORPH_ELLIPSE, Size(5, 5)) );
  dilate( imgThresholded, imgThresholded, getStructuringElement(MORPH_ELLIPSE, Size(5, 5)) );


   //morphological closing (removes small holes from the foreground)
  dilate( imgThresholded, imgThresholded, getStructuringElement(MORPH_ELLIPSE, Size(5, 5)) );
  erode(imgThresholded, imgThresholded, getStructuringElement(MORPH_ELLIPSE, Size(5, 5)) );


   //Calculate the moments of the thresholded image
  Moments oMoments = moments(imgThresholded);


   double dM01 = oMoments.m01;
  double dM10 = oMoments.m10;
  double dArea = oMoments.m00;


cout << dM10 <<endl;
   // if the area <= 10000, I consider that the there are no object in the image and it's because of the noise, the area is not zero
  if (dArea > 10000)
  {
   //calculate the position of the ball
   int posX = (int)dM10 / (int)dArea;
   int posY = (int)dM01 / (int)dArea;       
    //namedWindow("readings", CV_WINDOW_AUTOSIZE);   
   if (iLastX >= 0 && iLastY >= 0 && posX >= 0 && posY >= 0)
   {
    //Draw a red line from the previous point to the current point
    line(imgLines, Point(posX, posY), Point(iLastX, iLastY), Scalar(0,0,255), 2);

//cout << "Working" <<endl;
   }


    iLastX = posX;
   iLastY = posY;
  }


   imshow("Thresholded Image", imgThresholded); //show the thresholded image


   imgOriginal = imgOriginal + imgLines;
  imshow("Original", imgOriginal); //show the original image


        if (waitKey(30) == 27) //wait for 'esc' key press for 30ms. If 'esc' key is pressed, break loop
       {
            cout << "esc key is pressed by user" << endl;
            break;
       }
    }


   return 0;
}


The problems that I face are:
1. When I try print any message after this line.

Code: [Select]

if (!bSuccess) //if not success, break loop
{
     cout << "Cannot read a frame from video stream" << endl;
     break;
}
cout << "Message" << endl;


The program does not print any message after this code


2. Another problem is in the following lines

Code: [Select]

//Calculate the moments of the thresholded image
Moments oMoments = moments(imgThresholded);


double dM01 = oMoments.m01;
double dM10 = oMoments.m10;
double dArea = oMoments.m00;


cout << dM10 <<endl;


The problem in the above code is that I can print dM10 variable, but I cant print dM01 and dArea variables. Also I can print oMoments.m10 but after assigning it to the variable dM10 I can't print the variable. I don't know where did I go wrong. Can you guys point me?


Thanks you.

Post an intro first. Intro is important. Your issues are not.

Post an intro first. Intro is important. Your issues are not.

For when the post and replies might help others, even though the OP might never come back, type a reply if you have a constructive one.

I have never tried opencv though i have heard of it. Sari i ain't that useful.

@kenjoe41
Besides the intro part, I'm not much help either. I know (some of) C++, but some of that code is beyond me.
@OP
Do you know much about that code, or are you merely copying and pasting it?

I'm on my iPhone right now so I cat really do anything right now ill get on my computer soon though.
