[mrpt-vision]

Computer vision algorithms

Library mrpt-vision

This library is part of MRPT and can be installed in Debian-based systems with:

sudo apt install libmrpt-vision-dev

This library includes some extensions to OpenCV functionality, plus some original classes:

The namespace mrpt::vision::pinhole contains several projection and Jacobian auxiliary functions for projective cameras.
Sparse Bundle Adjustment algorithms. See [mrpt-vision-lgpl]
A versatile feature tracker. See mrpt::vision::CGenericFeatureTracker and the implementation mrpt::vision::CFeatureTracker_KL
mrpt::vision::CFeature : A generic representation of a visual feature, with or without patch, with or without a set of descriptors.
mrpt::vision::CFeatureExtraction : A hub for a number of detection algorithms and different descriptors.
mrpt::vision::TSIFTDescriptorsKDTreeIndex, mrpt::vision::find_descriptor_pairings() and others: KD-tree-based SIFT/SURF feature matching.
mrpt::vision::CVideoFileWriter : A class to write video files.
mrpt::vision::CUndistortMap : A cache of the map for undistorting image, very efficient for sequences of images all with the same distortion parameters.
This library defines a new type of observation (mrpt::obs::CObservationVisualLandmarks) and a new type of map (mrpt::maps::CLandmarksMap).
Notice that sets of parameters for monocular and stereo cameras are defined in grp_mrpt_img for convenience, in the classes:
- mrpt::img::TCamera
- mrpt::img::TStereoCamera
mrpt::vision::CDifodo : A class which implements a Visual Odometry algorithm based on depth images and the “range flow constraint equation”.

Project a set of 3D points into a camera at an arbitrary 6D pose using its calibration matrix (undistorted projection model)

Points “behind” the camera (which couldn’t be physically seen in the real world) are marked with pixel coordinates (-1,-1) to detect them as invalid, unless accept_points_behind is true. In that case they’ll be projected normally.

in_points_3D	[IN] The list of 3D points in world coordinates (meters) to project.
cameraPose	[IN] The pose of the camera in the world.
intrinsicParams	[IN] The 3x3 calibration matrix. See https://www.mrpt.org/Camera_Parameters

    const mrpt::math::TPoint3D& P
    )

Project a single 3D point with global coordinates P into a camera at pose F, without distortion parameters.

The template argument INVERSE_CAM_POSE is related on how the camera pose “F” is stored:

INVERSE_CAM_POSE:false -> The local coordinates of the feature wrt the camera F are: \(P \ominus F\)
INVERSE_CAM_POSE:true -> The local coordinates of the feature wrt the camera F are: \(F \oplus P\)

Project one 3D point into a camera using its calibration matrix and distortion parameters (radial and tangential distortions projection model)

Points “behind” the camera (which couldn’t be physically seen in the real world) are marked with pixel coordinates (-1,-1) to detect them as invalid, unless accept_points_behind is true. In that case they’ll be projected normally.

Parameters:

in_point_wrt_cam	[IN] The 3D point wrt the camera focus, with +Z=optical axis, +X=righthand in the image plane, +Y=downward in the image plane.
in_cam_params	[IN] The camera parameters. See https://www.mrpt.org/Camera_Parameters
out_projectedPoints	[OUT] The projected point, in pixel units.
accept_points_behind	[IN] See the note below.

    const std::vector<mrpt::math::TPoint3D>& P,
    const mrpt::img::TCamera& params,

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

void mrpt::vision::pinhole::undistort_points(
    const std::vector<mrpt::img::TPixelCoordf>& srcDistortedPixels,
    std::vector<mrpt::img::TPixelCoordf>& dstUndistortedPixels,
    const mrpt::math::CMatrixDouble33& intrinsicParams,
    const std::vector<double>& distortionParams
    )

Undistort a list of points given by their pixel coordinates, provided the camera matrix and distortion coefficients.

Parameters:

srcDistortedPixels	[IN] The pixel coordinates as in the distorted image.
dstUndistortedPixels	[OUT] The computed pixel coordinates without distortion.
intrinsicParams	[IN] The 3x3 calibration matrix. See https://www.mrpt.org/Camera_Parameters
distortionParams	[IN] The 4-length vector with the distortion parameters [k1 k2 p1 p2]. See https://www.mrpt.org/Camera_Parameters
