1. 为什么要拼接

如果你的被射物足够小;
如果你的镜头视野足够大;
如果你的银子足够多,可以买更牛的相机,更牛的镜头。。。

如果你没有那么多的如果,项目多了,图像拼接在所难免。

2. 效果是啥

借助Halcon自带的例子,就是将下面两张图像,拼接为一个更宽的图像。

图像1:

合并两张图python 合并两张图片 halcon_合并两张图python

图像2:

合并两张图python 合并两张图片 halcon_合并两张图python_02

拼接后的图像:

合并两张图python 合并两张图片 halcon_Image_03

有没有变得更宽?

3. 拼接步骤

  1. 读取图像
  2. 提取特征点
  3. 计算变换矩阵
  4. 拼接

参考Halcon例程proj_match_points_distortion_ransac.hdev,逐步分析。该例程是基于特征点来拼接图像的。

合并两张图python 合并两张图片 halcon_特征点_04

3.1. 读取图像并显示图像

代码:

read_image (Image1, 'building_01')
read_image (Image2, 'building_02')
get_image_size (Image1, Width, Height)
dev_close_window ()
dev_open_window (0, 0, Width, Height, 'white', WindowHandle)
set_display_font (WindowHandle, 16, 'mono', 'true', 'false')
dev_display (Image1)
disp_message (WindowHandle, 'Image 1 to be matched', 'image', -1, -1, 'black', 'true')
disp_continue_message (WindowHandle, 'black', 'true')
stop ()
dev_display (Image2)
disp_message (WindowHandle, 'Image 2 to be matched', 'image', -1, -1, 'black', 'true')
disp_continue_message (WindowHandle, 'black', 'true')

 

效果:

合并两张图python 合并两张图片 halcon_图像拼接_05

合并两张图python 合并两张图片 halcon_图像拼接_06

3.2. 获取特征点

该例程是基于图像的特征点进行拼接图像的,需要获取两张图像的特征点。
何为特征点?根据算子points_foerstner的解释,特征点有两类,一类名为交点特征点,指的是那些图像边沿的点,另一类称作区域特征点,如,图像的颜色和亮度与周围不同的点。

代码:

points_foerstner (Image1, 1, 2, 3, 50, 0.1, 'gauss', 'true', Rows1, Columns1, CoRRJunctions, CoRCJunctions, CoCCJunctions, RowArea, ColumnArea, CoRRArea, CoRCArea, CoCCArea)
points_foerstner (Image2, 1, 2, 3, 50, 0.1, 'gauss', 'true', Rows2, Columns2, CoRRJunctions, CoRCJunctions, CoCCJunctions, RowArea, ColumnArea, CoRRArea, CoRCArea, CoCCArea)

3.3. 计算仿射变换矩阵

根据两幅图像的特征点,计算出仿射变换矩阵。

代码:

proj_match_points_ransac (Image1, Image2, Rows1, Columns1, Rows2, Columns2, 'ncc', 10, 0, 0, Height, Width, 0, 0.5, 'gold_standard', 2, 42, HomMat2DUnrectified, Points1Unrectified, Points2Unrectified)

 

3.3. 拼接

根据仿射变换矩阵进行拼接。

代码:

concat_obj (Image1, Image2, Images)
gen_projective_mosaic (Images, MosaicImageUnrectified, 1, 1, 2, HomMat2DUnrectified, 'default', 'false', MosaicMatrices2DUnrectified)

 

效果:

合并两张图python 合并两张图片 halcon_Image_07

显示接缝代码:

projective_trans_pixel (MosaicMatrices2DUnrectified[9:17], [0,493], [0,0], RowTrans, ColumnTrans)
gen_contour_polygon_xld (Contour, RowTrans, ColumnTrans)

 

接缝效果:

合并两张图python 合并两张图片 halcon_Image_08

仔细观察图像拼接的接缝处,发现拼接的效果并不理想,接缝是错开的。原因是两张图像的径向畸变造成的。何为径向畸变?这是镜头固有的,当焦距很大或很小时,拍出的图像尤其明显,图像的边缘处向前凹,或者向里凸的效果,仔细观察原来的两张图像,边缘处是向里凸进去的。

课外知识

相机内参数:

f:相机的主矩,即焦距
k:径向扭曲的大小,即径向畸变,一般不考虑切向畸变
sx,sy:图像传感器在水平和垂直方向上相邻像素之间的距离
cx,cy: 投影中心在成像平面的垂直投影

相机外参数:

平移向量X,Y,Z
旋转向量X,Y,Z
透视矫正

 

相机的内外参数是相机标定的重点。

因此,例程的后半部分就是消除这种径向畸变对拼接的影响,Halcon中有对应的算子,使用起来很方便。

4. 消除径向畸变

4.1. 读出图像

同上

4.2. 计算仿射变换矩阵

注意,使用了消除径向畸变的算子。代码:

proj_match_points_distortion_ransac (Image1, Image2, Rows1, Columns1, Rows2, Columns2, 'ncc', 10, 0, 0, Height, Width, 0, 0.5, 'gold_standard', 1, 42, HomMat2D, Kappa, Error, Points1, Points2)

4.3. 预处理

消除图像中的镜像畸变。

代码:

CamParDist := [0.0,Kappa,1.0,1.0,0.5 * (Width - 1),0.5 * (Height - 1),Width,Height]
change_radial_distortion_cam_par ('fixed', CamParDist, 0, CamPar)
change_radial_distortion_image (Image1, Image1, Image1Rect, CamParDist, CamPar)
change_radial_distortion_image (Image2, Image2, Image2Rect, CamParDist, CamPar)

 

效果:

图像1(原图)

合并两张图python 合并两张图片 halcon_特征点_09

图像1(去除径向畸变后)

合并两张图python 合并两张图片 halcon_特征点_10

图像2(原图)

合并两张图python 合并两张图片 halcon_特征点_11

图像2(去除径向畸变后)

合并两张图python 合并两张图片 halcon_合并两张图python_12


第一组图效果不是很明显,仔细观察第二组图,两个边缘是不是被拉平了?

4.4. 图像拼接

同上。

最终的效果:

合并两张图python 合并两张图片 halcon_Image_13

仔细观察接缝处,这次图像拼接的很好。
