CompassDirImg

DESCRIPTION

Computes the directional gradient of an image in the direction given by the Direction parameter. Directions are the eight major compass headings. For comparison with the other Compass directional modules, North is 0 degrees and directions proceed 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.
