Creates an image from the higher pixel values of each corresponding pair.
| Name | Type | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|
 |
inImage1 | Image | First input image |
|
inImage2 | Image | Second input image |
|
inRoi | Region* | Range of pixels to be processed |
 |
outImage | Image | Output image |
Description
The operation computes the maximum of two images. Each outImage pixel is equal to the brighter of the corresponding pixels of the input images.
In multichannel (color) images each pixel channel is processed separately.
The operation requires that the images being processed have equal format and dimensions, otherwise an error with appropriate description occurs. To obtain an image of desired dimensions one can use ResizeImage or CropImage filter. To alter the pixel type of an image one can use ConvertPixelType filter. ConvertToMultichannel and AverageChannels filters allow to alter the number of image channels.
