Figure 7.58 Example: Effect of Y Edge Kernel on Inspected Object

Image tool

Inspected

object

The effects on the inspected object that the

Absolute

and

S.Threshold

LUTs have when using the

Y Edge

kernel would be similar to the

Sobel X

examples in Figure 7.53 (page 7–64). The main difference is that the

Y Edge

kernel produces a wider gradient.

XY Edge Kernel

The

XY Edge

kernel is a Laplace–type kernel that performs nondirectional

spatial filtering functions that sharpen gradients lying along both the X–axis
and the Y–axis of the image. (Note that the effect is similar to that of the

Laplace

kernels, except that the

XY Edge

’s 5x5 kernel produces a wider

gradient than the

Laplace

’s 3x3 kernel.)

The coefficients in the

XY Edge

kernel are arrayed in a 5x5 matrix, as

follows:
