centroid resolution

Hello,
I have the developer suite w/vision.

Using the Centroid VI, what is the sub pixel resolution I'd hope to get?  I expect the image of the circle to have slight rolloff as a function of the imaging application (not a well defined circle); this should help increase the data set.  I would expect the resolution to increase as a function of the circle size relative to the detector's pixel pitch.  Is there a rule of thumb to figure this out ?

 

Beyond thresholding and masking out background image, is there another VI or approach that could increase resolution over the centroid VI?


Thanks

Hi cheeseburger,

 

The link below provides the equation that IMAQ Centroid is using.

 

How Does the IMAQ Centroid VI Work?:

I hope this helps!
