Detailed Description

Base class for bar code detector. This class is a wrapper over libdmtx available from http://www.libdmtx.org. Installation instructions are provided here https://visp.inria.fr/3rd_dmtx.

The detect() function allows to detect multiple QR codes in an image. Once detected, for each QR code it is possible to retrieve the location of the corners using getPolygon(), the encoded message using getMessage(), the bounding box using getBBox() and the center of gravity using getCog().

The following sample code shows how to use this class to detect QR codes in an image.

#include <visp3/detection/vpDetectorDataMatrixCode.h>
#include <visp3/io/vpImageIo.h>
int main()
{
#ifdef VISP_HAVE_DMTX
vpImageIo::read(I, "bar-code.pgm");
bool status = detector.detect(I);
if (status) {
for(size_t i=0; i < detector.getNbObjects(); i++) {
std::cout << "Bar code " << i << ":" << std::endl;
std::vector<vpImagePoint> p = detector.getPolygon(i);
for(size_t j=0; j < p.size(); j++)
std::cout << " Point " << j << ": " << p[j] << std::endl;
std::cout << " Message: \"" << detector.getMessage(i) << "\"" << std::endl;
}
}
#endif
}
std::vector< std::vector< vpImagePoint > > & getPolygon()
size_t getNbObjects() const
std::vector< std::string > & getMessage()
bool detect(const vpImage< unsigned char > &I) vp_override
static void read(vpImage< unsigned char > &I, const std::string &filename, int backend=IO_DEFAULT_BACKEND)
Definition: vpImageIo.cpp:143

The previous example may produce results like:

Bar code 0:
Point 0: 273.21, 78.9799
Point 1: 390.016, 85.1014
Point 2: 388.024, 199.185
Point 3: 269.23, 192.96
Message: "datamatrix 1"
Bar code 1:
Point 0: 262.23, 396.404
Point 1: 381.041, 402.631
Point 2: 378.92, 524.188
Point 3: 257.916, 519.962
Message: "datamatrix 2"

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ vpDetectorDataMatrixCode()

vpDetectorDataMatrixCode::vpDetectorDataMatrixCode ( )

Default constructor that does nothing except setting detection timeout to 50ms. This value could be changed using setTimeout().

Definition at line 50 of file vpDetectorDataMatrixCode.cpp.

References vpDetectorBase::setTimeout().

Member Function Documentation

◆ detect()

bool vpDetectorDataMatrixCode::detect ( const vpImage< unsigned char > &  I)
virtual

Detect datamatrix codes in the image. Return true if a code is detected, false otherwise. There is the setTimeout() function that allows to tune the value of the timeout used to detect a datamatrix code. By default, there is a timeout of 50 ms set in the constructor.

Parameters
I: Input image.

Implements vpDetectorBase.
