Detailed Description

Class handling the normalized surface moment that is invariant in scale and used to estimate depth.

This moment depends on vpMomentCentered.

The idea behind vpMomentAreaNormalized is described in [26].

During a visual servoing process, a vpMomentAreaNormalized will converge towards the desired depth when the current surface will converge to the destination surface. It is defined as follows: $ a_n=Z^* \sqrt{\frac{a^*}{a}} $ where a is the current surface and a* the destination surface. Consequently, the vpMomentAreaNormalized needs to have information about the desired depth Z* and the desired surface a*.

Warning
About the order of the object. The surface (refered to as a in the above paragraph) depends of the nature of the object.

Therefore, a vpMomentObject has to be of minimum order 2 in order to compute a vpMomentAreaNormalized moment in the discrete case and of minimum order 0 in continous cases.

This example shows a computation in the discrete case.

#include <visp3/core/vpPoint.h>
#include <visp3/core/vpMomentGravityCenter.h>
#include <visp3/core/vpMomentDatabase.h>
#include <visp3/core/vpMomentCentered.h>
#include <visp3/core/vpMomentAreaNormalized.h>
int main()
{
std::vector<vpPoint> vec_p; // vector that contains object points
p.set_x(1); p.set_y(1); // coordinates in meters in the image plane of point 1
vec_p.push_back(p);
p.set_x(2); p.set_y(2); // coordinates in meters in the image plane of point 2
vec_p.push_back(p);
vpMomentObject obj(2); // Object where all the moment defined with
// i+j <= 2 will be computed below. Order is
// 2 because in discrete mode, the surface
// computation is a=mu02+mu02
obj.setType(vpMomentObject::DISCRETE); // Discrete mode for object
obj.fromVector(vec_p); // initialize the object with the points coordinates
vpMomentDatabase db; //reference database
vpMomentGravityCenter g; // declaration of gravity center
vpMomentCentered mc; // centered moments
vpMomentAreaNormalized an(2,1); //declare normalized surface with
//destination depth of 1 meter and
//destination surface of 2 m2
g.linkTo(db); //add gravity center to database
mc.linkTo(db); //add centered moments
an.linkTo(db); //add alpha depending on centered moments
db.updateAll(obj); // All of the moments must be updated, not just an
g.compute(); // compute the moment
mc.compute(); //compute centered moments AFTER gravity center
an.compute(); //compute alpha AFTER centered moments.
std::cout << an << std::endl;
return 0;
}

void vpMoment::linkTo ( vpMomentDatabase data_base)
inherited

Links the moment to a database of moment primitives. If the moment depends on other moments, these moments must be linked to the same database.

Attention
Two moments of the same class cannot be stored in the same database
