CompassAngleImg

DESCRIPTION

Computes the directional gradient of an image in the direction given by the Angle parameter. Directions are compass headings, with North being 0 degrees and proceeding clockwise. The gradient is computed using a square kernel whose edge length is governed by the Kernel Size parameter. The Bias parameter adds a constant amount to the output gradient array. This directional gradient computation is described in: Digital Image Processing, Gonzales, R.C., Wintz, P., Addison Wesley, Second Edition, 1987, pp 176--179.
