indeed.
so if you say you want to track "10" blobs, and there is only 1 blob in
your image, [pix_multiblob] will still only output a single blob.

i think the main problem people are having with [pix_multiblob] is that
it outputs the detected blobs as a "matrix", as used by the "iemmatrix"
library.

attached is a small abstraction that will convert the output of
[pix_multiblob] to lists, which might be easier to handle for you.
(actually there are 2 abstractions, the one in iemmatrix/ depends on the
iemmatrix library, the other one is pure vanilla; they should do the
same but the latter might be a lot slower with larger matrices)

there is also a simplistic tracker example that comes with Gem (and
again depends on iemmatrix) that uses a simple algorithm for labelling
blobs, based on the assumption that blobs move as little as possible:
it's called [pix_blobtracker]
