Background Suppression; Filter Setting (Background Suppression) - Omron FH-3 Series Reference Manual

Background Suppression

Specifying a brightness range to use for measurement eliminates the section outside that range as background.
In addition, the extracted range is converted into values of 0 to 255, so the contrast can be emphasized.
Used in the Following Case
• By extracting a specific brightness range, the contrast on the image can be improved,
unnecessary background eliminated, etc.
Example) Improving contrast
Before processing
Basic concept of background suppression
Because input values from 0 to [Lower] are
converted to level 0 and values from [Upper] to 255
are converted to level 255, the background in this
range is eliminated.
Together with this, only [Lower] to [Upper] from the
input values 0 to 255are taken and those are
converted to output values of 0 to 255, so the
contrast within this range is emphasized.
Important
• Processing is different for color images and monochrome images. If the camera type, color camera, or monochrome
camera, was changed from a previous setup, a reset of some settings may be needed.
