7.3.8 Pattern Count Tool
The Pattern Count tool locates a pattern within a reference image, using and uses that pattern as a reference pattern
to locate the same pattern in new images. A reference pattern is stored in memory. The tool searches for patterns that
are very similar to the reference pattern. All patterns that match the reference pattern are counted and the center of the
first pattern found is determined. The location of the first pattern found is returned to the user. This information can
be used to measure distances and angles. The reference pattern is remembered by the sensor in full gray scale detail,
so the tool can find patterns in various light levels.
