Once an image is shown by the client, a new window can be opened with colour analysis information.
  
NB! the client is implemented as modules in the standard server frame, and thus the modules must be loaded before use. (they are most likely loaded from the ini-file (auclient.ini) if this exist in the directory where the AUCLIENT were started.

Introduction

A client capable of connecting to the main servers (laser scanner, camera server and other servers) to get data, and to display data graphically.

The client implements a command line interface, and a module to display images using openCV X-interface.

The program is started with the command in a directory with a auclient.ini configuration file:

auclient

A command to a laser server running on smr16 could be:

laser connect=smr16:24919
laser cmd="scanget"

If the laser scanner is running on (smr16 (the mmr)), then the laser scanner data should be displayed in a navigation window.

The camera server can be accessed like (if it is connected):

cam cmd="imageget all"

Camera image analysis

Once an image is shown by the client, a new window can be opened with colour analysis information.

The color analysis can either be shown in IUV color coordinates or as cromaticity. The following disp comands are available (from on-line help)

------ Image colour analysis options ----------                                                                                                                     
uvimg=N                   Do UV analysis for this image number
croma=N                   Do cromaticity analysis on this image  number                                                                                              
intensMin                 Minimum intensity to display colour
intensMax                 Maximum intensity to display colour
