openCv crop image

Question

I running into problems with my openCv IplImage cropping. Assuming both tmp and img are IplImage* . Using the code:

printf(\"Orig dimensions: %dx%d\\n\", im         


        

Answer 1

you can easily crop the image in python by using

roi = oriImage[refPoint[0][1]:refPoint[1][1], refPoint[0][0]:refPoint[1][0]]

In order to get the two points you can call cv2.setMouseCallback("image", mouse_crop). The function is something like this

def mouse_crop(event, x, y, flags, param):
    # grab references to the global variables
    global x_start, y_start, x_end, y_end, cropping

    # if the left mouse button was DOWN, start RECORDING
    # (x, y) coordinates and indicate that cropping is being
    if event == cv2.EVENT_LBUTTONDOWN:
        x_start, y_start, x_end, y_end = x, y, x, y
        cropping = True

    # Mouse is Moving
    elif event == cv2.EVENT_MOUSEMOVE:
        if cropping == True:
            x_end, y_end = x, y

    # if the left mouse button was released
    elif event == cv2.EVENT_LBUTTONUP:
        # record the ending (x, y) coordinates
        x_end, y_end = x, y
        cropping = False # cropping is finished

        refPoint = [(x_start, y_start), (x_end, y_end)]

        if len(refPoint) == 2: #when two points were found
            roi = oriImage[refPoint[0][1]:refPoint[1][1], refPoint[0][0]:refPoint[1][0]]
            cv2.imshow("Cropped", roi)
            cv2.imwrite("crop.jpg",roi)

For C++ you can do like below:

void mouse_call(int event,int x,int y,int,void*)
{
    if(event==EVENT_LBUTTONDOWN)
    {
        leftDown=true;
        cor1.x=x;
        cor1.y=y;
        cout <<"Corner 1: "<<cor1<<endl;

    }
    if(event==EVENT_LBUTTONUP)
    {
        if(abs(x-cor1.x)>20&&abs(y-cor1.y)>20) //checking whether the region is too small
        {
            leftup=true;
            cor2.x=x;
            cor2.y=y;
            cout<<"Corner 2: "<<cor2<<endl;
        }
        else
        {
            cout<<"Select a region more than 20 pixels"<<endl;
        }
    }

    if(leftDown==true&&leftup==false) //when the left button is down
    {
        Point pt;
        pt.x=x;
        pt.y=y;
        Mat temp_img=img.clone();
        rectangle(temp_img,cor1,pt,Scalar(0,0,255)); //drawing a rectangle continuously
        imshow("Original",temp_img);

    }
    if(leftDown==true&&leftup==true) //when the selection is done
    {

        box.width=abs(cor1.x-cor2.x);
        box.height=abs(cor1.y-cor2.y);
        box.x=min(cor1.x,cor2.x);
        box.y=min(cor1.y,cor2.y);
        Mat crop(img,box); //Selecting a ROI(region of interest) from the original pic
        namedWindow("Cropped Image");
        imshow("Cropped Image",crop); //showing the cropped image
        leftDown=false;
        leftup=false;

    }

}

Try this.It's work.

                     IplImage *source_image;
                     IplImage *cropped_Image1;

                     cout << "Width:" << source_image->width << " pixels" << endl;
                     cout << "Height:" << source_image->height << " pixels" << endl;
                     int width = source_image->width;
                     int lenght = source_image->height;

                     cv::Rect roi;
                     roi.x = 1200; //1200     // 950
                     roi.y = 355; //350      //150 
                     roi.width = 2340; //2360          //2750
                     roi.height = 1425;  //1235 /2500         //2810   //2465 fully braille sheet


                     cropped_Image1 = cvCreateImage(cvSize(roi.width, roi.height), source_image->depth, source_image->nChannels);
                     cvSetImageROI(source_image, roi);
                     cvCopy(source_image, cropped_Image1);
                     cvResetImageROI(source_image);
                     cvShowImage("Cropped Image", cropped_Image1);
                     cvSaveImage("1_cropped.jpg", cropped_Image1);

Image cropping using OpenCV

Mat image=imread("image.png",1);

int startX=200,startY=200,width=100,height=100

Mat ROI(image, Rect(startX,startY,width,height));

Mat croppedImage;

// Copy the data into new matrix
ROI.copyTo(croppedImage);

imwrite("newImage.png",croppedImage);

Answer 4

cvRect is defined as ( int x, int y, int width, int height ), not (int left, int top, int right, int bottom). So you are selecting a 500x500 region starting at the point (x,y) = (400,400). I am guessing your image height is 720 ;).
