Abstract

An entropic segmentation method is presented and applied to the contour detection of water drops over patterned surfaces. Jensen–Shannon divergence is computed from a double sliding window in the image to get a real number matrix, in which a region growing procedure is performed in a similar way to usual watershed. Then a region merging process is achieved, and the optimal configuration is selected to obtain the complete drop contour. Once the drop contour is detected from top-view images, the contact angle might be readily computed from the area enclosed by the contour and the drop volume.
