Question

So I have rotated an image along the y axis using WarpPerspective in the code below. I now want to find the coordinates of the corners of the image in this new rotated image? So for example if they were [0, 0], [100, 0] , [100, 100], [0, 100] before what will they be after? I thought to do this I should just multiply these first coordinates against the transformation matrix but this does not work.

float rotx, roty, rotz; // set these first
int f = 2; // this is also configurable, f=2 should be about 50mm focal length

int h = img.rows;
int w = img.cols;

float cx = cosf(rotx), sx = sinf(rotx);
float cy = cosf(roty), sy = sinf(roty);
float cz = cosf(rotz), sz = sinf(rotz);

float roto[3][2] = { // last column not needed, our vector has z=0
    { cz * cy, cz * sy * sx - sz * cx },
    { sz * cy, sz * sy * sx + cz * cx },
    { -sy, cy * sx }
};

float pt[4][2] = {{ -w / 2, -h / 2 }, { w / 2, -h / 2 }, { w / 2, h / 2 }, { -w / 2, h / 2 }};
float ptt[4][2];
for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
    float pz = pt[i][0] * roto[2][0] + pt[i][1] * roto[2][1];
    ptt[i][0] = w / 2 + (pt[i][0] * roto[0][0] + pt[i][1] * roto[0][1]) * f * h / (f * h + pz);
    ptt[i][1] = h / 2 + (pt[i][0] * roto[1][0] + pt[i][1] * roto[1][1]) * f * h / (f * h + pz);
}

cv::Mat in_pt = (cv::Mat_<float>(4, 2) << 0, 0, w, 0, w, h, 0, h);
cv::Mat out_pt = (cv::Mat_<float>(4, 2) << ptt[0][0], ptt[0][1],
    ptt[1][0], ptt[1][1], ptt[2][0], ptt[2][1], ptt[3][0], ptt[3][1]);

cv::Mat transform = cv::getPerspectiveTransform(in_pt, out_pt);

cv::Mat img_in = img.clone();
cv::warpPerspective(img_in, img, transform, img_in.size());
Was it helpful?

Solution

To get the points after perspective transform, you can use the perspectiveTransform function from openCV with the same transform matrix you used in warpPerspective for example

std::vector<Point2f> camera_corners,world_corners;
camera_corners.push_back(Point2f(0, 0));
camera_corners.push_back(Point2f(100, 100));
....
perspectiveTransform(camera_corners, world_corners, transform);

Now world_corners contains the warped points
