1. A method of identifying an edge of an object in an image, comprising: identifying a pixel-array of the image and a central pixel in the array; identifying a set of mini-vectors as possible edges for the central pixel, utilizing a calculated gradient figure for the center pixel; and producing a reduced set of mini-vectors for the central pixel from the set of mini-vectors by removing mini-vectors that do not generate a continuous edge with an adjacent mini-vector edge in an adjacent pixel-array in the image.
