7.3.2 Blob Detect Tool
In imaging, a group of adjacent, like-shaded pixels, is called a Blob, short for Binary Large OBject . The Blob tool
separates selected pixels into two categories: black and white. After the pixels are separated into black and white, they
are grouped and adjacent black or white pixels are seen as a dark or bright Blob.
