Discard tiny elements detected with findContours

C++
1

Hi,
well, pretty easy issue, but IDK if it is already solved or… Dont know where is it solved.

I have an image, with a big shape well detected with findContours in the middle of the screen (OK) but in one of the corners there are 2 tiny detected bodies that I coudnt discard with any kind of morfology and I would like to discard with this findContours function.
There is any function that might help me to discard the tiny bodies? thank you!

look up contourArea, discard contours that are small by that measure.

here’s an example: OpenCV: Image Moments
