Dependencies

Installing opencv2.x with python2.x bindings

capture_frames_from_video.py

This is a simple module that reads frames from a video

calibrate_camera.py

This module takes a series of images of an asymmetric chessboard as input and returns the camera intrinsics

More Info:

• An excellent analysis of Camera Intrinsics

calculate_fmatrix.py

This module takes a pair of images as input and returns the Fundamental Matrix. This is an algebraic representation of the epipolar geometry that is assumed to be true between the two images.

• Epipolar Geometry and the Fundamental Matrix
• The Fundamental Matrix Song

calculate_homography.py

This module takes a pair of images of a planar surface and returns the Homography. Since opencv hasn't exposed decomposeHomographyMat to the python bindings yet, I wrote my own implementation following the paper Malis, E. and Vargas, M.
