Detailed Description

Main methods for a model-based tracker.

This class provides the main methods for a model based tracker. This pure virtual class must be used in inheritance for a tracker that compute the interaction matrix and the residu vector using a defined information (edge, points of interest, patch, ...)

This class intends to define a common basis for object tracking. This is realised by implementing the main functions:

init() : Initialisation of the tracker (it includes re-initialisation). This method is called at the end of the initClick() method.
initFaceFromCorners() : Initialisation of a face using its corners.
track() : Tracking on the current image
testTracking() : Test the tracking. This method throws exception if the tracking failed.
display() : Display the model and eventually other information.

In addition, two flags are declared in this class and may have to be initialised in the child class :

modelInitialised : flag to ensure that the model has been loaded. initialised (either by loading them from a configuration file or by setting them with the setCameraParameters() method).

}; The cylinders extracted using this method do not use the Cylinder keyword of vrml since vrml exporter such as Blender or AC3D consider a cylinder as an IndexedFaceSet. To test whether an indexedFaceSet is a cylinder or not, the name of the geometry is read. If the name begins with "cyl" then the faceset is supposed to be a cylinder. For example, the line
geometry DEF cyl_cylinder1 IndexedFaceSet

defines a cylinder named cyl_cylinder1.
