Measure Distances Points to Points

Function

This Step is used to measure the distances between two points.

Hint

Before using this Step, please refer to Getting Started with Measurement Mode to learn about basics of Measurement Mode.

Attention

This Step does not support custom specified points, the points can only be obtained from Measure Circles or Detect Circle Centers.

Sample Application

Connect Steps

  1. Click on Measure Circles (1), go to the Step Input Source Selection panel, and then select Read Images V2_1_Color Image as Input 1 (Color Image).

  2. Click on Measure Circles (2), go to the Step Input Source Selection panel, and then select Read Images V2_1_Color Image as Input 1 (Color Image).

  3. Click on Measure Distances Points to Points, go to the Step Input Source Selection panel, and then select Measure Circles_1_Circles as Input 2 (Points) and Measure Circles_2_Circles as Input 3 (Points).

Configure parameters and read the result
