Type Description
Segments Array An array containing the segments. For an example of how to
access this data from an SDKapplication or a GDK tool, see
the appropriate sample in the SDKsamples; for more
information, see Setup and Locations on page 666.
Diagnostics Surface Surface data you can use to evaluate the impact of the tool's
kern size and iteration settings, which the tool uses to
separate potential segments.
Surface {n} Surface data corresponding to each segmented part.
Data
Parameter Description
Source The sensor, or combination of sensors, that provides data for the tool's
measurements. For more information, see Source on page 201.
Use region Indicates whether the tool uses the user-defined region.
If this option is not checked, the tool uses data from the entire active area.
Part Area Min
Part Area Max
The minimum and maximum areas in square millimeters for a part of the scan data
to be identified as a segment.
Part Aspect Min
Part Aspect Max
The minimum and maximum aspect ratios (minimum axis length in mm) / (maximum
axis length in mm) of the best fit ellipse to the segment contour points for a segment
to qualify to be added to the list of found segments.
Background Filter Kern Size
Background Filter Iterations
These settings perform background cleanup. The greater each of these values is, the
more the background surface for the segment search will be adjusted. You must find
a balance that removes noise adequately without degrading the segment find
quality.
Part Edge Filter Kern Size Use this value to clean up overlapping edges and find segments when noise is
present in the scan data.
