CogBlob RunTimeMeasures Property Cognex VisionPro
A collection indicating how the specified measures will be used during execution of blob analysis. Blob measures can either be used as filter criteria or precomputed such that the time required to calculate the measure is part of the blob execution time.

Namespace: Cognex.VisionPro.Blob

Remarks

A collection of CogBlobMeasure objects indicating how the specified measures will be used during execution of blob analysis. Blob measures can either be used as filter criteria or precomputed such that the time required to calculate the measure is part of the blob execution time.

You must sink change events from the collection to be notified when the measures change. This function only generates an event when the reference to the collection changes.
