class  cv::aruco::CharucoBoard
 ChArUco board Specific class for ChArUco boards. A ChArUco board is a planar board where the markers are placed inside the white squares of a chessboard. The benefits of ChArUco boards is that they provide both, ArUco markers versatility and chessboard corner precision, which is important for calibration and pose estimation. This class also allows the easy creation and drawing of ChArUco boards. More...

Detailed Description

This module is dedicated to square fiducial markers (also known as Augmented Reality Markers) These markers are useful for easy, fast and robust camera pose estimation.ç

The main functionalities are:

The implementation is based on the ArUco Library by R. Muñoz-Salinas and S. Garrido-Jurado [72].

Markers can also be detected based on the AprilTag 2 [219] fiducial detection method.

#include <opencv2/aruco.hpp>

Calibrate a camera using aruco markers.

Parameters
cornersvector of detected marker corners in all frames. The corners should have the same format returned by detectMarkers (see detectMarkers).
idslist of identifiers for each marker in corners
counternumber of markers in each frame so that corners and ids can be split
boardMarker Board layout
imageSizeSize of the image used only to initialize the intrinsic camera matrix.
cameraMatrixOutput 3x3 floating-point camera matrix \(A = \vecthreethree{f_x}{0}{c_x}{0}{f_y}{c_y}{0}{0}{1}\) . If CV_CALIB_USE_INTRINSIC_GUESS and/or CV_CALIB_FIX_ASPECT_RATIO are specified, some or all of fx, fy, cx, cy must be initialized before calling the function.
distCoeffsOutput vector of distortion coefficients \((k_1, k_2, p_1, p_2[, k_3[, k_4, k_5, k_6],[s_1, s_2, s_3, s_4]])\) of 4, 5, 8 or 12 elements
rvecsOutput vector of rotation vectors (see Rodrigues ) estimated for each board view (e.g. std::vector<cv::Mat>>). That is, each k-th rotation vector together with the corresponding k-th translation vector (see the next output parameter description) brings the board pattern from the model coordinate space (in which object points are specified) to the world coordinate space, that is, a real position of the board pattern in the k-th pattern view (k=0.. M -1).
tvecsOutput vector of translation vectors estimated for each pattern view.
stdDeviationsIntrinsicsOutput vector of standard deviations estimated for intrinsic parameters. Order of deviations values: \((f_x, f_y, c_x, c_y, k_1, k_2, p_1, p_2, k_3, k_4, k_5, k_6 , s_1, s_2, s_3, s_4, \tau_x, \tau_y)\) If one of parameters is not estimated, it's deviation is equals to zero.
stdDeviationsExtrinsicsOutput vector of standard deviations estimated for extrinsic parameters. Order of deviations values: \((R_1, T_1, \dotsc , R_M, T_M)\) where M is number of pattern views, \(R_i, T_i\) are concatenated 1x3 vectors.
perViewErrorsOutput vector of average re-projection errors estimated for each pattern view.
flagsflags Different flags for the calibration process (see calibrateCamera for details).
criteriaTermination criteria for the iterative optimization algorithm.

This function calibrates a camera using an Aruco Board. The function receives a list of detected markers from several views of the Board. The process is similar to the chessboard calibration in calibrateCamera(). The function returns the final re-projection error.

§ detectCharucoDiamond()

void cv::aruco::detectCharucoDiamond ( InputArray  image,
InputArrayOfArrays  markerCorners,
InputArray  markerIds,
float  squareMarkerLengthRate,
OutputArrayOfArrays  diamondCorners,
OutputArray  diamondIds,
InputArray  cameraMatrix = noArray(),

)
Python:
diamondCorners, diamondIds=cv.aruco.detectCharucoDiamond(image, markerCorners, markerIds, squareMarkerLengthRate[, diamondCorners[, diamondIds[, cameraMatrix[, distCoeffs]]]])

#include <opencv2/aruco/charuco.hpp>

Detect ChArUco Diamond markers.

Parameters
imageinput image necessary for corner subpixel.
markerCornerslist of detected marker corners from detectMarkers function.
markerIdslist of marker ids in markerCorners.
squareMarkerLengthRaterate between square and marker length: squareMarkerLengthRate = squareLength/markerLength. The real units are not necessary.
diamondCornersoutput list of detected diamond corners (4 corners per diamond). The order is the same than in marker corners: top left, top right, bottom right and bottom left. Similar format than the corners returned by detectMarkers (e.g std::vector<std::vector<cv::Point2f> > ).
diamondIdsids of the diamonds in diamondCorners. The id of each diamond is in fact of type Vec4i, so each diamond has 4 ids, which are the ids of the aruco markers composing the diamond.
cameraMatrixOptional camera calibration matrix.
distCoeffsOptional camera distortion coefficients.

This function detects Diamond markers from the previous detected ArUco markers. The diamonds are returned in the diamondCorners and diamondIds parameters. If camera calibration parameters are provided, the diamond search is based on reprojection. If not, diamond search is based on homography. Homography is faster than reprojection but can slightly reduce the detection rate.

§ detectMarkers()

InputArray  distCoeff = noArray() 
)
Python:
corners, ids, rejectedImgPoints=cv.aruco.detectMarkers(image, dictionary[, corners[, ids[, parameters[, rejectedImgPoints[, cameraMatrix[, distCoeff]]]]]])

#include <opencv2/aruco.hpp>

Basic marker detection.

Parameters
imageinput image
dictionaryindicates the type of markers that will be searched
cornersvector of detected marker corners. For each marker, its four corners are provided, (e.g std::vector<std::vector<cv::Point2f> > ). For N detected markers, the dimensions of this array is Nx4. The order of the corners is clockwise.
idsvector of identifiers of the detected markers. The identifier is of type int (e.g. std::vector<int>). For N detected markers, the size of ids is also N. The identifiers have the same order than the markers in the imgPoints array.
parametersmarker detection parameters
rejectedImgPointscontains the imgPoints of those squares whose inner code has not a correct codification. Useful for debugging purposes.
cameraMatrixoptional input 3x3 floating-point camera matrix \(A = \vecthreethree{f_x}{0}{c_x}{0}{f_y}{c_y}{0}{0}{1}\)
distCoeffoptional vector of distortion coefficients \((k_1, k_2, p_1, p_2[, k_3[, k_4, k_5, k_6],[s_1, s_2, s_3, s_4]])\) of 4, 5, 8 or 12 elements

Performs marker detection in the input image. Only markers included in the specific dictionary are searched. For each detected marker, it returns the 2D position of its corner in the image and its corresponding identifier. Note that this function does not perform pose estimation.

parametersmarker detection parameters

This function tries to find markers that were not detected in the basic detecMarkers function. First, based on the current detected marker and the board layout, the function interpolates the position of the missing markers. Then it tries to find correspondence between the reprojected markers and the rejected candidates based on the minRepDistance and errorCorrectionRate parameters. If camera parameters and distortion coefficients are provided, missing markers are reprojected using projectPoint function. If not, missing marker projections are interpolated using global homography, and all the marker corners in the board must have the same Z coordinate.
