Class CometProcessor

java.lang.Object
  net.grelf.grip.CometProcessor

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Runnable

public class CometProcessor
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.lang.Runnable

Semi-interactive batch processor which asks the user to point to a detected "star" (typically a comet or minor planet) in each frame to be processed. The frames are shifted to put that object at a constant position and then accumulated (32 bits per channel). This is like the astro-combine process using the method shift-brightest except that a comet is not likely to be the brightest object in each frame and so the user has to help.
