ABSTRACT:
An image processing method distinguishes an object from within an image area by determining a stable threshold value of light intensity values from within the image area. Received light is converted into image data denoting light intensity values of the received light at a plurality of points from within the image area. A bright portion average value denoting an average of the light intensity values which exceed a predetermined threshold and a dark portion average value denoting an average of the light intensity values which are less than the predetermined threshold are calculated. A new threshold is obtained by applying the bright portion average value and the dark portion average value to a predetermined dividing ratio. The object within the image area is distinguished using the new threshold. The method is also applicable to the use of multivalue thresholds.
