Line tracking View menu

This menu contains the different views available in PixyMon for the line tracking program. To bring up this menu, you must be running the line_tracking program by selecting it in the Program menu, and then clicking on the View menu in the menubar.

  • Primary features, no background: This view shows a black background with the Vector, intersection, and barcode features shown as separate layers. This view is minimal in its representation of what Pixy2 is detecting and has the advantage that it doesn't slow Pixy2's image processing down much. This view usually allows Pixy2 to process frames at the full 60 frames-per-second. PixyMon will usually display at 60 frames-per-second as well with this view.
  • Primary features: This view shows a black-and-white background layer in addition to Vector, intersection, and barcode features shown as separate layers. This view usually slows down Pixy2's processing because the background layer takes time to transfer over USB.
  • All features: This view is the same as the Primary features view but adds all detected (but filtered) lines and intersections. This view essentially renders all of the data that's returned in getAllFeatures() in the line tracking API. This view further slows down Pixy2's processing because the background layer and extra features take time to transfer over USB.
