To achieve precise color recognition in Matlab, the first step is to convert the RGB image into a color space that separates the intensity information from the color information. One commonly used color space for this purpose is the HSV color space.
Here's an example code that reads an image, converts it to the HSV color space, and applies a color threshold to detect red objects in the image:
main.m650 chars21 lines
This code can be adapted to detect objects of other colors as well, by adjusting the hue range in the color threshold.
