draw oriented rectangle around a blob

10 views (last 30 days)
function y=cadre(x)
info = regionprops(x,'Boundingbox') ;
imshow(x)
hold on
for k = 1 : length(info)
BB = info(k).BoundingBox;
rectangle('Position', [BB(1),BB(2),BB(3),BB(4)],'EdgeColor','g','LineWidth',1) ;
end
I am using this code with a segmented image in input, and I have this result :
input output
I would like the rectangles to be the smallest and with the same orientation as the objects, to get the angles for exemple.
How can I modify my code ?

Something like this seems to work:
img = imread('testimage.jpg');
bw = imbinarize(im2gray(img),'adaptive','Sensitivity',0.45);
info = regionprops(bw, 'all');
imshow(img);
hold on;
minSize = 50; % ignore small/noise regions (adjust as necessary)
angles = [];
for k = 1:length(info)
% get region properties
w = info(k).MajorAxisLength;
h = info(k).MinorAxisLength;
x = info(k).Centroid(1) - w/2;
y = info(k).Centroid(2) - h/2;
theta = info(k).Orientation;
if h < minSize % skip the small/noise regions
continue;
end
angles = [angles theta];
ps = polyshape([x, x, x+w, x+w], [y, y+h, y+h, y]);
ps2 = rotate(ps, -theta, [x+w/2 y+h/2]);
plot(ps2, 'EdgeColor','r', 'FaceColor','none', 'LineWidth',2);
end
angles
angles = 1×2

OK but note that the boxes don't completely contain the blobs.

Note that if you are looking for the angles then regionprops() 'Orientation' will give you the angle of the major axes.
