Detailed Description

Base class for bar code detector. This class is a wrapper over libzbar available from http://zbar.sourceforge.net. Installation instructions are provided here https://visp.inria.fr/3rd_zbar.

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/vpDetectorQRCode.h>
#include <visp3/io/vpImageIo.h>
int main()
{
#ifdef VISP_HAVE_ZBAR
vpImageIo::read(I, "bar-code.pgm");
vpDetectorQRCode detector;
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: 48, 212
Point 1: 57, 84
Point 2: 188, 92
Point 3: 183, 220
Message: "qrcode 2"
Bar code 1:
Point 0: 26, 550
Point 1: 35, 409
Point 2: 174, 414
Point 3: 167, 555
Message: "qrcode 1"
