For my program, using OpenCV and Python, I'm trying to detect road lanes. In order to accomplish this, I used Hough Line Transform to detect lines. However, it finds many lines right next to each other and I'm trying to find a way to make an average line that's in between all of those other lines. Tips?
Here's my code:
import numpy as np
import cv2
cap = cv2.VideoCapture('CVfootage.mov')
while(True):
ret, frame = cap.read()
frame = frame[200:720, 0:1280]
gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
blur = cv2.GaussianBlur(gray,(7,7),0)
edges = cv2.Canny(blur, 50, 150)
lines = cv2.HoughLinesP(image=edges,rho=1,theta=np.pi/180, threshold=100,lines=np.array([]), minLineLength=100,maxLineGap=80)
a,b,c = lines.shape
for i in range(a):
cv2.line(blur, (lines[i][0][0], lines[i][0][1]), (lines[i][0][2], lines[i][0][3]), (0, 0, 255), 3, cv2.LINE_AA)
cv2.imshow('edges', edges)
cv2.imshow('hough', blur)
if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
break
cap.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()
you need to adjust the parameter of the houghlinesP function
if you want less lines next to each other : increase 'rho'
if you want less lines in general : increase threshold
