void vpFeatureBuilder::create ( vpFeaturePoint &  s,
const vpCameraParameters &  cam,
const vpDot &  d 
)
static

Create a vpFeaturePoint thanks to a vpDot and the parameters of the camera. The vpDot contains only the pixel coordinates of the point in an image. Thus this method uses the camera parameters to compute the meter coordinates $ x $ and $ y $ in the image plan. Those coordinates are stored in the vpFeaturePoint.

Warning
It is not possible to compute the depth of the point $ Z $ in the camera frame thanks to a vpDot. This coordinate is needed in vpFeaturePoint to compute the interaction matrix. So this value must be computed outside this function.
Parameters
s: Visual feature $(x, y)$ to initialize. Be aware, the 3D depth $Z$ requested to compute the interaction matrix is not initialized by this function.
cam: The parameters of the camera used to acquire the image containing the vpDot.
d: The vpDot used to create the vpFeaturePoint.

The code below shows how to initialize a vpFeaturePoint visual feature. First, we initialize the $x,y$, and lastly we set the 3D depth $Z$ of the point which is generally the result of a pose estimation.

vpImage<unsigned char> I; // Image container
vpCameraParameters cam; // Default intrinsic camera parameters
vpDot dot; // Dot tracker
vpFeaturePoint s; // Point feature
...
// Tracking on the dot
dot.track(I);
// Initialize rho,theta visual feature
vpFeatureBuilder::create(s, cam, dot);
// A pose estimation is requested to initialize Z, the depth of the
// point in the camera frame.
double Z = 1; // Depth of the point in meters
....
s.set_Z(Z);

void vpFeatureBuilder::create ( vpFeaturePoint &  s,

static

Create a vpFeaturePoint thanks to a vpDot2 and the parameters of the camera. The vpDot2 contains only the pixel coordinates of the point in an image.

void vpFeatureBuilder::create ( vpFeaturePoint &  s,
const vpCameraParameters &  goodCam,
const vpCameraParameters &  wrongCam,
const vpPoint &  p 
)
static

Create a vpFeaturePoint thanks to a vpPoint. In this method noise is introduced during the initialization of the vpFeaturePoint. This method uses the point coordinates $ x $ and $ y $ in the image plan to set the visual feature parameters. The value of the depth $ Z $ in the camera frame is also computed thanks to the coordinates in the camera frame which are stored in vpPoint.

This function intends to introduce noise after the initialization of the parameters. Cartesian $(x,y)$ coordinates are first converted in pixel coordinates in the image using goodCam camera parameters. Then, the pixels coordinates of the point are converted back to cartesian coordinates $(x^{'},y^{'})$ using the noisy camera parameters wrongCam. These last parameters are stored in the vpFeaturePoint.

Warning
To be sure that the vpFeaturePoint is well initialized, you have to be sure that at least the point coordinates in the image plan and in the camera frame are computed and stored in the vpPoint.
Parameters
s: The feature point.
goodCam: Camera parameters used to introduce noise. These parameters are used to convert cartesian coordinates of the point p in the image plane in pixel coordinates.
wrongCam: Camera parameters used to introduce noise. These parameters are used to convert pixel coordinates of the point in cartesian coordinates of the point in the image plane.
p: The vpPoint used to create the vpFeaturePoint.

Initialize a point feature with polar coordinates $(\rho,\theta)$ using the coordinates of the point $(x,y,Z)$, where $(x,y)$ correspond to the perspective projection of the point in the image plane and $Z$ the 3D depth of the point in the camera frame. The values of $(x,y,Z)$ are expressed in meters.

This function intends to introduce noise in the conversion from cartesian to polar coordinates.

create vpFeatureEllipse feature

Initialize an ellipse feature thanks to a vpCircle. The vpFeatureEllipse is initialized thanks to the parameters of the circle in the camera frame and in the image plan. All the parameters are given in meter.

Warning
To be sure that the vpFeatureEllipse is well initialized, you have to be sure that at least the circle coordinates in the image plan and in the camera frame are computed and stored in the vpCircle.
Parameters
s: Visual feature to initialize.
t: The vpCircle used to create the vpFeatureEllipse.

Initialize an ellipse feature thanks to a vpSphere. The vpFeatureEllipse is initialized thanks to the parameters of the sphere in the camera frame and in the image plan. All the parameters are given in meter.

Warning

void vpFeatureBuilder::create ( vpFeatureEllipse &  s,
const vpCameraParameters &  cam,
const vpDot &  t 
)
static

Initialize an ellipse feature thanks to a vpDot and camera parameters. The vpFeatureEllipse is initialized thanks to the parameters of the dot given in pixel. The camera parameters are used to convert the pixel parameters to parameters given in meter.

Warning
With a vpDot there is no information about 3D parameters. Thus the parameters $(A,B,C)$ can not be set. You have to compute them and initialized them outside the method.
Parameters
s: Visual feature to initialize.
cam: The parameters of the camera used to acquire the image containing the vpDot.
t: The vpDot used to create the vpFeatureEllipse.
