Detailed Description

Base class for storing images.

You actually want to use ImageOf or FlexImage. This is a minimal class, designed to be as interoperable as possible with other image classes in other libraries, particularly IPL-derived libraries such as OpenCV.

◆ topIsLowIndex()

bool yarp::sig::Image::topIsLowIndex ( ) const

inline

Returns: true if image has origin at top left (default); in other words when the y index is low, we are near the top of the image.

◆ wrapIplImage()

void Image::wrapIplImage ( void * iplImage )

Act as a wrapper around an IPL/OpenCV image.

The wrapped image needs to exist for the rest of the lifetime of this oboject. Be careful if you use this method on objects read from or written to a BufferedPort, since the lifetime of such objects can be longer than you expect (see the documentation for yarp::os::BufferedPort::read, yarp::os::BufferedPort::prepare, and yarp::os::BufferedPort::write).

Parameters

iplImage pointer to an IplImage structure

Definition at line 561 of file Image.cpp.
