Add LocateSingleObject_Edges1 filter to PROCESS section and connect it with the input image.
-
Open a template matching editor on inEdgeModel and make sure to select Expert complexity mode in the top right corner. Select the template region as shown in the picture below. Please note that you can select multiple smaller, separate regions for better rotation detection.
-
Set the range of possible rotations from -20 to +20.
-
In the next tab mark a reference rectangle as shown in the image below.
-
Add the outImage and outObject.Match outputs to a data preview.
-
Perform several iterations of the program and verify if the results are correct.
-
You may add AlignRectangle filter, connect outObject.Alignment with inAlignment to get a view of an aligned rectangle to the object.
