pass back corner detections #130

Open inventor2525 opened 2 years ago

inventor2525 commented 2 years ago

Just wondering if there's interest in this. Possibly made optional.

Reasons we wanted the change: 1) To try removing rotational ambiguity in limited instances using extra points, possibly inner corners 2) Track tag looking for blur resistant extra markers (possibly until ArucoDCF [not the current ros node]). 3) Add other adjacent markers in the future (color calibration).

I guess publishing the corner coordinates too could be useful. I did this in the ROS2 version of the node: https://github.com/christianrauch/apriltag_ros. However, I recommend using standard messages for this instead of raw lists of concatenated coordinates.

So far, this would be useful for debugging and visualisation. I don't follow how you want to use them in the applications you listed. Most of them will require changes to the library itself, not this ROS node.

I would also interested in receiving the corner and center detections as e.g. Detection2D messages
