ar_markers
=================
Detection of hamming markers for OpenCV written in python.
Originally written by Max Brauer: `github `_.
All I did was clean up some little stuff and package it for use on pypi.
This package is able to read and create hamming markers, described in
`this blogpost `_.
Purpose
--------
This project was for a robotics/computer vision `class `_
I taught Spring 2018. I wanted something simple enough we could go through the
code and they could understood how it worked. I also taught them OpenCV, so
I wanted something written in that. Eventually we made "street signs" and the
students drove Roomba robots around on these "strees" (ok, really it was 3 inch
wide black tape for the roads). When they detected an intersection, they used
a camera to read the street sign (ar marker) and it told them to: go straight,
turn left, or turn right.
Sometimes it isn't as robust as I would like, so you may have to move the target
around before it gets recognized.
Install
---------
The simplest way to install is::
pip install ar_markers
You will also need OpenCV 3.x as a minimum. On macOS you can do::
brew install opencv
Usage
-------------
There are two helper scripts:
- ``ar_markers_generate.py`` to generate the markers. Do ``ar_markers_generate.py --help``
to see the options
- ``ar_markers_scan.py`` to scan the marker. Once you have created and printed out a
marker, hold the marker in front of your camera. You will see a blue border around
the marker, (if detected) and a green number, showing the ID the marker
represents.
or use in a program like:
.. code-block:: python
#!/usr/bin/env python
from __future__ import print_function
import cv2
from ar_markers import detect_markers
if __name__ == '__main__':
print('Press "q" to quit')
capture = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
if capture.isOpened(): # try to get the first frame
frame_captured, frame = capture.read()
else:
frame_captured = False
while frame_captured:
markers = detect_markers(frame)
for marker in markers:
marker.highlite_marker(frame)
cv2.imshow('Test Frame', frame)
if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
break
frame_captured, frame = capture.read()
# When everything done, release the capture
capture.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()
