- Output log file with date & time of process, and process parameters.
- Reconstructed the cockroach movie with original background subtracted (new background is white).
- Verified centroid and orientation angle calculated by making a "stick cockroach" movie and compared it with the original.
- Using orientation angle as a starting point to exclude non-similar frames for frame-by-frame comparison.
- Implemented frame-by-frame comprison using following simple methods to find some good looping points:
- simple absolute value of pixel-by-pixel difference in RGB space.
- B&W silhouette pixel-by-pixel comparion
- The comparison results did not yield as a very good guide to visually smooth transition...

Week 16 (7/7-13/7)
|
- Adding structural comments, batch processing trouble shooting, image output as png file with transparency layer
- Trying to output log files that record program parameters and processed result.
|
Week 15 (30/6-6/7)
|
Tidying up code and display - Break up the code into smaller modules for better management.
Help from Peter:-
- Hue, Saturation, Value color space
- Learnt batch process
- Direction of research might go towards similarity measurement of images
