◆ get_license_info()

List[cvb.LicenseInfo] get_license_info ( )

Get information about available licenses.

In theory, the collection of available licenses can change any time. However, it is fairly unlikely that during runtime someone unplugs a dongle or removes a Node Locked license, so Common Vision Blox does not implement a costly push / event model for notifying clients during runtime about the presence of new licenses or the loss of a license. Instead, the license information can and needs to be queried using this method.

Returns

List[cvb.LicenseInfo] A vector containing the currently available licenses.

◆ get_magic_number_entries()

List[cvb.MagicNumberEntry] get_magic_number_entries ( )

Query the set of currently available Magic Numbers.

In theory, the collection of available Magic Numbers can change any time. However, it is fairly unlikely that during runtime someone unplugs a dongle or removes a Node Locked license, so Common Vision Blox does not implement a costly push / event model for notifying clients during runtime about the presence of new Magic Numbers or the loss of a Magic Number. Instead, the Magic Number information can and needs to be queried using this method.

Returns

List[cvb.MagicNumberEntry] A list containing the currently available magic number entries.

◆ histogram()

List[int] histogram	(	cvb.ImagePlane	plane,
		cvb.Area2D	aoi,

Parameters

plane : cvb.ImagePlane Plane to gather the histogram from.

aoi : cvb.Area2D Area in which to gather the histogram.

density : float Scan density to generate the histogram. It must be in the range [0...1]. Lower densities result in higher processing speed, but will also yield histograms, which are notably jagged due to the poor statistics.

Returns

List[int] Histogram as a list of 256 integer values.

◆ install_path()

str install_path ( )

Directory Common Vision Blox has been installed to.

Returns

str A path as string.

Returns

cvb.Image The newly created image.

◆ normalize_min_max()

cvb.Image normalize_min_max	(	cvb.Image	image,
		float	target_min,
		float	target_max
	)

Normalize an input image using min/max normalization (the gray values of the image will be stretched or compressed to fit the input target minimum and maximum values).

Parameters

image : cvb.Image Image to be normalized.

target_min : float Target minimum value to achieve.

target_max : float Target maximum value to achieve.

Returns

cvb.Image The newly created image.

◆ polar_transform()

cvb.Image polar_transform	(	cvb.Image	image,
		cvb.Point2D	center,
		float	inner_radius,
		float	outer_radius,
		cvb.Angle	start_angle,
		cvb.Angle	total_angle
	)

Create a polar transformation (that is unwrap a ring structure from inside source image into a rectangular image).

Linear interpolation is being used for the transformation.

Parameters

image : cvb.Image Source image.

center : cvb.Point2D Center image for the polar transform.

inner_radius : float Inner radius of the ring.

outer_radius : float Outer radius of the ring.

start_angle : cvb.Angle Orientation of the start angle (default 0.0 degrees).

total_angle : cvb.Angle The total angle to cover (default 360.0 degrees).

Returns

cvb.Image The newly created image.

◆ sign()

int sign ( cvb.Angle angle )

Returns a value indicating the sign of an Angle.

Parameters

angle : cvb.Angle The angle.

Returns

int -1 if angle is less than zero, 0 if angle is zero, 1 if angle is greater than zero.

◆ sin()

float sin ( cvb.Angle angle )

Returns the sine of an angle.

Parameters

angle : cvb.Angle The angle.

Returns

float The sine.

◆ sinh()

float sinh ( cvb.Angle angle )

Returns the hyperbolic sine of an angle.

Parameters

angle : cvb.Angle The angle.

Returns

float The hyperbolic sine.

◆ tan()

float tan ( cvb.Angle angle )

Returns the tangent of an angle.

Parameters

angle : cvb.Angle The angle.

Returns

float The tangent.

◆ tanh()

float tanh ( cvb.Angle angle )

Returns the hyperbolic tangent of an angle.

Parameters

angle : cvb.Angle The angle.

Returns

float The hyperbolic tangent.

◆ version()

str version ( )

Full version of the currently installed CVB.

Returns

str Version string.

◆ wait_for_license()

int wait_for_license ( int time_span )

Wait for a given time for a license to become available.

This is useful if your application is automatically started after the operating system. For example the license service might not be up and running yet. So your application will start without a license. By calling this function you can make sure your application sees a valid license before actually requiring it.

Parameters

time_span : int Time (in ms) to wait for a license.

Returns

int The status of the wait operation (see cvb.WaitStatus).

◆ wrapper_version()

str wrapper_version ( )

Get the full version string for CVBpy and all its submodules.

Returns

str: Complete version string.
