NAME

6       Image::SubImageFind - Perl extension for locating a sub-image within an
7       image
8

SYNOPSIS

10         use Image::SubImageFind qw/FindSubImage/;
11
12         #  First parameter is the larger image file (HayStack)
13         #  Second parameter is the sub-image file to locate within the larger image (Needle)
14         my ($x, $y) = FindSubImage("./haystackfile.png", "./needlefile.jpg");
15         if ($x > 0 || $y > 0) {
16             print "Found sub-image at: $x X $y\n";
17         } else {
18             print "Could not find sub-image.\n";
19         }
20
21         #  Alternatively, you can use the emerging object oriented syntax.
22         my $finder = new Image::SubImageFind("./haystackfile.png", "./needlefile.png");
23         my ($x, $y) = $finder->GetCoordinates();
24         print "$x X $yn";
25
26         #  Another example; which may allow for more flexibility.
27         my $finder = new Image::SubImageFind("./haystackfile.png");
28         my ($x, $y) = $finder->GetCoordinates("./needlefile.png");
29         print "$x X $yn";
30
31         #  You can also specify an alternate comparison method.  The default is DWVB; which
32         #  uses an adaptive filter for the correct localization of subimages.
33         #
34         #  Another is called GPC; which is just a generic pixel compare, but also supports a
35         #  delta threshold (using GetMaxDelta and SetMaxDelta).
36         use Image::SubImageFind qw/:CONST/;
37
38         my $finder = new Image::SubImageFind("./haystackfile.png", "./needlefile.png", CM_DWVB);
39         # OR
40         my $finder = new Image::SubImageFind("./haystackfile.png", "./needlefile.png", CM_GPC);
41         # $finder->GetMaxDelta();
42         # $finder->SetMaxDelta([DeltaValue]);   # 0 or greater, where 0 means no pixel difference
43
