Hi,
I know I can get white pixels showing me edges in an image when using the edge function with the canny method and I am also aware that one can easily find the coordinates of those pixels.
But does anyone know how to get the exact coordinates of the edge "points". I don´t know how this function works exactly but I assume it fits a function of intensity normal to the edge and then finds a middle ground between the darkest and brightest pixel. And it does that for every row/column (depending on the orientation of the edge). For example for a horizon it will do this for every column to find the "crossover point".
Instead of matlab painting the pixel nearest to that coordinate white I would like to get the actual coordinate.
Any thoughts and ideas are most welcome!

Does anyone have any ideas?

Try bwboundaries(). Usually people upload an image when asking for image processing advice.

The following image was taken with a high speed camera at 100000 fps and shows a rod on rod impact (they bounce off one another after impact - this is what is shown here). If anyone is interested this is called a symmetric Taylor impact test.
The top image is the original and the bottom one was produced using the Matlab function edge with option 'canny'. With bwboundaries() I can find the coordinates of those pixels but I need to get coordinates accurate to subpixel levels.
I have 24 of those images showing the impact over time. The idea is to capture how the radius of the rod evolves in time - hence I need coordinates of the top and bottom edge of the rod.
What I know so far is:
1. One can resize the image to a higher sort of fake resolution, then use edge() and downsize the image afterwards but I don´t exactly know how to do that.
2. Another option I believe is fitting a function to the intensity profile of the edge and then somehow decide through a threshold or something at what point the edge "occurs".
I am looking for some help with 1. or 2. depending on which option is easier to achieve. I am not sure how to implement this.
