• Using ImageMagick to efficiently stitch together a line scan image

  2 octobre 2018, par rkantos

  I’m looking for alternatives for line scan cameras to be used in sports timing, or rather in the part where placing needs to be figured out. I found that common industrial cameras can readily match the speed of commercial camera solutions at >1000 frames per second. For my needs, usually the timing accuracy is not important, but the relative placing of athletes. I figured I could use one of the cheapest Basler, IDS or any other area scan industrial cameras for this purpose. Of course there are line scan cameras that can do a lot more than a few thousand fps (or hz), but it is possible to get area scan cameras that can do the required 1000-3000fps for less than 500€.

  My holy grail would of course be the near-real time image composition capabilities of FinishLynx (or any other line scan system), basically this part : https://youtu.be/7CWZvFcwSEk?t=23s

  The whole process I was thinking for my alternative is :

  • Use Basler Pylon Viewer (or other software) to record 2px wide images at the camera’s fastest read speed. For the camera I am
    currently using it means it has to be turned on it’s side and the
    height needs to be reduced, since it is the only way it will read
    1920x2px frames @ >250fps
  • Make a program or batch script that then stitches these 1920x2px frames together to, for example one second of recording 1000*1920x2px
    frames, meaning a resulting image with a resolution of 1920x2000px
    (Horizontal x Vertical).
  • Finally using the same program or another way, just rotate the image so it reflects how the camera is positioned, thus achieving an image
    with a resolution of 2000x1920px (again Horizontal x Vertical)
  • Open the image in an analyzing program (currently ImageJ) to quickly analyze results

  I am no programmer, but this is what I was able to put together just using batch scripts, with the help of stackoverflow of course.

  • Currently recording a whole 10 seconds for example to disk as a raw/mjpeg(avi/mkv) stream can be done in real time.
  • Recording individual frames as TIFF or BMP, or using FFMPEG to save them as PNG or JPG takes 20-60 seconds The appending and rotation
    then takes a further 45-60 seconds
    This all needs to be achieved in less than 60 seconds for 10 seconds of footage(1000-3000fps @ 10s = 10000-30000 frames) , thus why I need something faster.

  I was able to figure out how to be pretty efficient with ImageMagick :

  magick convert -limit file 16384 -limit memory 8GiB -interlace Plane -quality 85 -append +rotate 270 “%folder%\Basler*.Tiff” “%out%”
  
  
  
  #%out% has a .jpg -filename that is dynamically made from folder name and number of frames.

  This command works and gets me 10000 frames encoded in about 30 seconds on a i5-2520m (most of the processing seems to be using only one thread though, since it is working at 25% cpu usage). This is the resulting image : https://i.imgur.com/OD4RqL7.jpg (19686x1928px)

  However since recording to TIFF frames using Basler’s Pylon Viewer takes just that much longer than recording an MJPEG video stream, I would like to use the MJPEG (avi/mkv) file as a source for the appending. I noticed FFMPEG has “image2pipe” -command, which should be able to directly give images to ImageMagick. I was not able to get this working though :

     $ ffmpeg.exe -threads 4 -y -i "Basler acA1920-155uc (21644989)_20180930_043754312.avi" -f image2pipe - | convert - -interlace Plane -quality 85 -append +rotate 270 "%out%" >> log.txt

  If I go a bit higher for the height, I no longer get the “[mjpeg @ 000000000046b0a0] EOI missing, emulating” -error. However the whole thing will only work with <2px high/wide footage.

  edit : Oh yes, I can also use ffmpeg -i file.mpg -r 1/1 $filename%03d.bmp or ffmpeg -i file.mpg $filename%03d.bmp to extract all the frames from the MJPEG/RAW stream. However this is an extra step I do not want to take. (just deleting a folder of 30000 jpgs takes 2 minutes alone…)

  Can someone think of a working solution for the piping method or a totally different alternative way of handling this ?

• Using FFMPEG to create animated GIF from series of images and insert text for each image

  11 janvier 2021, par mwcmwc

  I am generating an animated gif from a series of png's labeled img_00.png, img_01.png, etc. I want to insert text to the top right corner of the animated gif for each frame that is generated from the png to display some specific information. For example say I have 3 pngs, img_00, img_01, and img_02...what I want from the gif is :

  &#xA;

  For frame generated from img_00, display "This is from img_00".&#xA;For frame generated from img_01, display "This is from img_01".&#xA;For frame generated from img_02, display "This is the last image generated from img_02 !".

  &#xA;

  So far I have been messing around with drawtext option (assuming framerate=1) :

  &#xA;

  ffmpeg -f image2 -framerate 1 -i img_%02d.png -filter_complex "drawtext=enable='between(t,0,1)':text='word1':fontsize=24:fontcolor=white:x=w-tw:y=0,drawtext=enable='between(t,1,2)':text='word2':fontsize=24:fontcolor=white:x=w-tw:y=0" out.gif


  &#xA;

  But I am getting "word1" and "word2" overlapped on top of each other. Is there a better way of doing this or someway to fix drawtext so the overlap doesn't happen ?
