Log edge detection zero crossings always lie on closed contours and so the output from the zero crossing detector is usually a binary image with single pixel thickness lines showing the positions of the zero crossing points. When we find a zero crossing of the laplacian, we must also compute an estimate of the local variance of the test image, since a true edge corresponds to a significant change in intensity of the original image.

In this application example the zero crossing action will only be to set pb0 high for a short period of time and then immediately start looking for the next falling edge zero crossing. The points at which image brightness changes sharply are typically organized into a set of curved line segments termed edges. The same problem of finding discontinuities in onedimensional signals is. This will also be used to switch a 220v relay to a 220 volt ac motor.
