Lucas–Kanade method optical flow with MATLAB

Leave a Comment / C++, Computer Vision, Image Processing, Linear Algebra, Matlab, Tutorials /

In this tutorial, I will show you how to estimate optical flow based on Lucas–Kanade method.  This project has the following scripts: Optical_flow_estimation, myFlow, myWarp, computeColor, flowToColor. The myFlow does the main job, it gets two images and a window length (patch length) and a threshold for accepting the optical flow.  In the following, you see the myFlow.  You can uncomment figure function calls […]

6DOF pose estimation with Aruco marker and ROS

29 Comments / Computer Vision, Image Processing, ROS, Tutorials /

ArUco is a simple yet great library for augmented reality applications. In this tutorial, I’m gonna show you how to track ArUco marker and estimate their 6DOF pose with ROS. For this tutorial, you only need a USB camera. You need to calibrate your camera before first. If you don’ know how to that just follow my other tutorial

Calibrating a Monocular Camera with ROS

6 Comments / Computer Vision, Image Processing, ROS, Tutorials /

ROS use OpenCV for camera calibration but the format that it stores the data is different than OpenCV. Also, you need to know where to place the camera calibration files so ROS can find it and publish it. 1.First, you need to install usb cam package from ROS and uvcdynctrl to disable autofocus:

2.Open a terminal and run roscore:
