I'm looking to do some image processing in Java and I'll be developing in Ubuntu with Eclipse.
So here is my objective:
From a greyscale image, I would like to be able to detect certain sized objects and draw a rectangular frame around them. However, the catch is that this image is captured from a thermal imaging camera so to detect body heat the pixels will have a value within a certain range.
After detecting all the objects in the image, I will need to count them, but that's later.
So here's my challenge. Which tools/apis/open classes can I use to do something like this. I looked around and found some basic manipulations such as rotate, crop, resize. But haven't really found anything I can use.
Where should I look/start?
thanks a lot in advance

Although ImageJ is set up as a GUI, you can use it as a library too (I do that too)
You'll have to search for a proper object detection plugin (but there are some floating around...)
good luck!
