Re: Locate The Center of WhiteDot from a Image

use numpy.  This is taken from a data analysis program I wrote for
analyzing single molecule fluorescent events.  So should be similar to
what you want, a white spot of a given intensity surrounded by noise.
array being your image stored as a numpy array, threshhold is your
value to be greater then

                self.thresharray = np.where(array>threshhold,array, 0)
                for i,v in np.ndenumerate(self.thresharray):
        #                print i,v
                    if v > 0:
                        #find the outside to draw our box around, look
around and color the outside of it green
                        for k in xrange(-2,2):
                            for j in xrange(-2,2):
                                try:
                                    if self.thresharray[i[0]-k,i[1]-j] == 0:
                                        picture.SetRGB(i[1]-j,i[0]-k,0,255,0)
                                except wx._core.PyAssertionError:
                                    pass
                                except IndexError:
                                    pass
