Detailed Description

The class represents rotated (i.e. not up-right) rectangles on a plane.

Each rectangle is specified by the center point (mass center), length of each side (represented by Size2f structure) and the rotation angle in degrees.

The sample below demonstrates how to use RotatedRect:

    Mat test_image(200, 200, CV_8UC3, Scalar(0));
    RotatedRect rRect = RotatedRect(Point2f(100,100), Size2f(100,50), 30);

    Point2f vertices[4];
    rRect.points(vertices);
    for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++)
    {
        line(test_image, vertices[i], vertices[(i+1)%4], Scalar(0,255,0), 2);
        putText(test_image, vertex_names[i], vertices[i], FONT_HERSHEY_SIMPLEX, 1, Scalar(255,255,255));
    }

    Rect brect = rRect.boundingRect();
    rectangle(test_image, brect, Scalar(255,0,0), 2);

    imshow("rectangles", test_image);
    waitKey(0);

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

RotatedRect() [1/3]

cv::RotatedRect::RotatedRect

(

)

Python:
	cv.RotatedRect(		) ->	<RotatedRect object>
	cv.RotatedRect(	center, size, angle	) ->	<RotatedRect object>
	cv.RotatedRect(	point1, point2, point3	) ->	<RotatedRect object>

default constructor

RotatedRect() [2/3]

cv::RotatedRect::RotatedRect	(	const Point2f &	center,
		const Size2f &	size,
		float	angle
	)

Python:
	cv.RotatedRect(		) ->	<RotatedRect object>
	cv.RotatedRect(	center, size, angle	) ->	<RotatedRect object>
	cv.RotatedRect(	point1, point2, point3	) ->	<RotatedRect object>

full constructor

Parameters

center	The rectangle mass center.
size	Width and height of the rectangle.
angle	The rotation angle in a clockwise direction. When the angle is 0, 90, 180, 270 etc., the rectangle becomes an up-right rectangle.

RotatedRect() [3/3]

cv::RotatedRect::RotatedRect	(	const Point2f &	point1,
		const Point2f &	point2,
		const Point2f &	point3
	)

Python:
	cv.RotatedRect(		) ->	<RotatedRect object>
	cv.RotatedRect(	center, size, angle	) ->	<RotatedRect object>
	cv.RotatedRect(	point1, point2, point3	) ->	<RotatedRect object>

Any 3 end points of the RotatedRect. They must be given in order (either clockwise or anticlockwise).

Member Function Documentation

boundingRect()

Rect cv::RotatedRect::boundingRect

(

)

const

Python:
	cv.RotatedRect.boundingRect(		) ->	retval

returns the minimal up-right integer rectangle containing the rotated rectangle

boundingRect2f()

Rect_<float> cv::RotatedRect::boundingRect2f

(

)

const

returns the minimal (exact) floating point rectangle containing the rotated rectangle, not intended for use with images

points() [1/2]

void cv::RotatedRect::points

(

Point2f

pts[]

)

const

Python:
	cv.RotatedRect.points(		) ->	pts

returns 4 vertices of the rotated rectangle

Parameters

pts	The points array for storing rectangle vertices. The order is bottomLeft, topLeft, topRight, bottomRight.

Note

Bottom, Top, Left and Right sides refer to the original rectangle (angle is 0), so after 180 degree rotation bottomLeft point will be located at the top right corner of the rectangle.

Examples:

samples/cpp/fitellipse.cpp, and samples/cpp/minarea.cpp.

points() [2/2]

void cv::RotatedRect::points

(

std::vector< Point2f > &

pts

)

const

Python:
	cv.RotatedRect.points(		) ->	pts
