Detection and Tracking of RED Color in Video Streaming by Using MATLAB

The document describes a MATLAB code for detecting and tracking red color in a video stream. It captures video frames using the video input function and detects red color by subtracting the red component from the grayscale image. It then uses median filtering, thresholding and connected component labeling to track red objects in real time. Rectangular boxes and labels are drawn around detected objects. The code provides contact information for the author, Engr Rana Muhammad Shakeel, and links to related projects and websites.

Function CODE:
function [camera_name, camera_id, resolution] = getCameraInfo(a)
camera_name = char(a.InstalledAdaptors(end));
camera_info = imaqhwinfo(camera_name);
camera_id = camera_info.DeviceInfo.DeviceID(end);
resolution = char(camera_info.DeviceInfo.SupportedFormats(end));

Main CODE:
a = imaqhwinfo;
[camera_name, camera_id, format] = getCameraInfo(a);

% Capture the video frames using the videoinput function


% You have to replace the resolution & your installed adaptor name.
vid = videoinput(camera_name, camera_id, format);

% Set the properties of the video object


set(vid, 'FramesPerTrigger', Inf);
set(vid, 'ReturnedColorspace', 'rgb')
vid.FrameGrabInterval = 5;

%start the video aquisition here


start(vid)

% Set a loop that stop after 100 frames of aquisition


while(vid.FramesAcquired<=200)

% Get the snapshot of the current frame


data = getsnapshot(vid);

% Now to track red objects in real time


% we have to subtract the red component
% from the grayscale image to extract the red components in the image.
diff_im = imsubtract(data(:,:,1), rgb2gray(data));
%Use a median filter to filter out noise
diff_im = medfilt2(diff_im, [3 3]);
% Convert the resulting grayscale image into a binary image.
diff_im = im2bw(diff_im,0.18);

% Remove all those pixels less than 300px


diff_im = bwareaopen(diff_im,300);

% Label all the connected components in the image.


bw = bwlabel(diff_im, 8);

%This is a loop to bound the red objects in a rectangular box.
