English term or phrase: blob
Engineers soon developed what’s known as the ***blob*** tool, still commonly used in today’s automated vision systems. Instead of just counting pixels, it counts groupings of pixels, or ***blobs***.

“So say you had pills or something you were counting,” Kurzynski says. “An area tool would just give you one, over-all count of pixels, whereas ***blob*** tools will give you counts of individual groups. It will tell you how many pills are there. Each ***blob*** can be analyzed further. The number of pixels for each ***blob*** can be analyzed for roundness and all this other stuff.”

In addition to roundness factor, modern ***blob*** tools can calculate ratios, perimeters and a host of other data.

Soon, ***blob*** tools were joined by edge tools, pattern matching tools and then later, geometric pattern tools, among others.

Edge tools are commonly used for measurement — perhaps a spark plug’s gap, for instance, and are capable of sub-pixel processing down to the thousandth of a pixel.

Though, depending on the application, ***blob*** tools are also often used for measurement.
