I am trying to get the pose of the camera with the help of solvePNP() from OpenCV.
After running my program I get the following errors:
OpenCV Error: Assertion failed (npoints >= 0 && npoints == std::max(ipoints.checkVector(2, CV_32F), ipoints.checkVector(2, CV_64F))) in solvePnP, file /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_graphics_opencv/opencv/work/OpenCV-2.4.2/modules/calib3d/src/solvepnp.cpp, line 55
libc++abi.dylib: terminate called throwing an exception
I tried to search how to solve these errors, but I couldn't resolve it unfortunately!
Here is my code, all comment/help is much appreciated:
enum Pattern { NOT_EXISTING, CHESSBOARD, CIRCLES_GRID, ASYMMETRIC_CIRCLES_GRID };
void calcBoardCornerPositions(Size boardSize, float squareSize, vector<Point3f>& corners,
Pattern patternType)
{
corners.clear();
switch(patternType)
{
case CHESSBOARD:
case CIRCLES_GRID:
for( int i = 0; i < boardSize.height; ++i )
for( int j = 0; j < boardSize.width; ++j )
corners.push_back(Point3f(float( j*squareSize ), float( i*squareSize ), 0));
break;
case ASYMMETRIC_CIRCLES_GRID:
for( int i = 0; i < boardSize.height; i++ )
for( int j = 0; j < boardSize.width; j++ )
corners.push_back(Point3f(float((2*j + i % 2)*squareSize), float(i*squareSize), 0));
break;
}
}
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
float squareSize = 50.f;
Pattern calibrationPattern = CHESSBOARD;
//vector<Point2f> boardCorners;
vector<vector<Point2f> > imagePoints(1);
vector<vector<Point3f> > boardPoints(1);
Size boardSize;
boardSize.width = 9;
boardSize.height = 6;
vector<Mat> intrinsics, distortion;
string filename = "out_camera_xml.xml";
FileStorage fs(filename, FileStorage::READ);
fs["camera_matrix"] >> intrinsics;
fs["distortion_coefficients"] >> distortion;
fs.release();
vector<Mat> rvec, tvec;
Mat img = imread(argv[1], CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE); // at kell adnom egy kepet
bool found = findChessboardCorners(img, boardSize, imagePoints[0], CV_CALIB_CB_ADAPTIVE_THRESH);
calcBoardCornerPositions(boardSize, squareSize, boardPoints[0], calibrationPattern);
boardPoints.resize(imagePoints.size(),boardPoints[0]);
//***Debug start***
cout << imagePoints.size() << endl << boardPoints.size() << endl << intrinsics.size() << endl << distortion.size() << endl;
//***Debug end***
solvePnP(Mat(boardPoints), Mat(imagePoints), intrinsics, distortion, rvec, tvec);
for(int i=0; i<rvec.size(); i++) {
cout << rvec[i] << endl;
}
return 0;
}
EDIT (some debug info):
I debugged it row by row. I stepped into all of the functions. I am getting the Assertion failed in SolvePNP(...). You can see below what I see when I step into the solvePNP function. First it jumps over the first if statement /if(vec.empty())/, and goes into the second if statement /if( !copyData )/, there when it executes the last line /*datalimit = dataend = datastart + rows*step[0]*/ jumps back to the first if statement and returns => than I get the Assertion failed error.
template<typename _Tp> inline Mat::Mat(const vector<_Tp>& vec, bool copyData)
: flags(MAGIC_VAL | DataType<_Tp>::type | CV_MAT_CONT_FLAG),
dims(2), rows((int)vec.size()), cols(1), data(0), refcount(0),
datastart(0), dataend(0), allocator(0), size(&rows)
{
if(vec.empty())
return;
if( !copyData )
{
step[0] = step[1] = sizeof(_Tp);
data = datastart = (uchar*)&vec[0];
datalimit = dataend = datastart + rows*step[0];
}
else
Mat((int)vec.size(), 1, DataType<_Tp>::type, (uchar*)&vec[0]).copyTo(*this);
}
Step into the function in a debugger and see exactly which assertion is failing. ( Probably it requires values in double (CV_64F) rather than float. )
OpenCVs new "inputarray" wrapper issuppsoed to allow you to call functions with any shape of mat, vector of points, etc - and it will sort it out. But a lot of functions assume a particular inut format or have obsolete assertions enforcing a particular format.
The stereo/calibration systems are the worst for requiring a specific layout, and frequently succesive operations require a different layout.
