Name

Signature

Description

The operator contour_to_world_plane_xldcontour_to_world_plane_xldContourToWorldPlaneXldContourToWorldPlaneXldContourToWorldPlaneXldcontour_to_world_plane_xld transforms contour points given in ContoursContoursContoursContourscontourscontours into the plane z=0 in a world coordinate system and returns the 3D contour points in ContoursTransContoursTransContoursTransContoursTranscontoursTranscontours_trans. The world coordinate system is chosen by passing its 3D pose relative to the camera coordinate system in WorldPoseWorldPoseWorldPoseWorldPoseworldPoseworld_pose. Hence, latter one is expected in the form , where ccs denotes the camera coordinate system and wcs the world coordinate system (see Transformations / Poses and “Solution Guide III-C - 3D Vision”). In CameraParamCameraParamCameraParamCameraParamcameraParamcamera_param you must pass the internal camera parameters (see Calibration for the sequence of the parameters and the underlying camera model).

In many cases CameraParamCameraParamCameraParamCameraParamcameraParamcamera_param and WorldPoseWorldPoseWorldPoseWorldPoseworldPoseworld_pose are the result of calibrating the camera with the operator calibrate_camerascalibrate_camerasCalibrateCamerasCalibrateCamerasCalibrateCamerascalibrate_cameras. See below for an example.

With the parameter ScaleScaleScaleScalescalescale you can scale the resulting 3D coordinates. The parameter ScaleScaleScaleScalescalescale must be specified as the ratio desired unit/original unit. The original unit is determined by the coordinates of the calibration object. If the original unit is meters (which is the case if you use the standard calibration plate), you can set the desired unit directly by selecting 'm'"m""m""m""m""m", 'cm'"cm""cm""cm""cm""cm", 'mm'"mm""mm""mm""mm""mm" or 'um'"um""um""um""um""um" for the parameter ScaleScaleScaleScalescalescale.

Internally, the operator first computes the line of sight between the projection center and the image point in the camera coordinate system, taking into account the radial distortions. The line of sight is then transformed into the world coordinate system specified in WorldPoseWorldPoseWorldPoseWorldPoseworldPoseworld_pose. By intersecting the plane z=0 with the line of sight the 3D coordinates of the transformed contour ContoursTransContoursTransContoursTransContoursTranscontoursTranscontours_trans are obtained.

Execution Information

• Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
• Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
• Processed without parallelization.

Result

contour_to_world_plane_xldcontour_to_world_plane_xldContourToWorldPlaneXldContourToWorldPlaneXldContourToWorldPlaneXldcontour_to_world_plane_xld returns TRUE if all parameter values are correct. If necessary, an exception is raised.
