<h2>Library <code>mrpt-vision</code></h2>
<hr>

This library includes some extensions to OpenCV functionality, plus some
original classes:

- The namespace mrpt::vision::pinhole contains several projection and Jacobian auxiliary functions for projective cameras.

- Sparse Bundle Adjustment algorithms. Implemented versions are:
        - mrpt::vision::bundle_adj_full : Levenberg-Marquart full optimization of camera frames (6D) + feature points (3D).

- A versatile feature tracker. See mrpt::vision::CGenericFeatureTracker and the implementation mrpt::vision::CFeatureTracker_KL

- mrpt::vision::CFeature: A generic representation of a visual feature, with or without
patch, with or without a set of descriptors.

- mrpt::vision::CFeatureExtraction: A hub for a number of detection algorithms and
 different descriptors.

- mrpt::vision::TSIFTDescriptorsKDTreeIndex, mrpt::vision::find_descriptor_pairings() and others: KD-tree-based SIFT/SURF feature matching.

- mrpt::vision::CVideoFileWriter: A class to write video files.

- mrpt::vision::CUndistortMap: A cache of the map for undistorting image, very efficient for sequences of images all with the same distortion parameters.

- This library defines a new type of observation (mrpt::slam::CObservationVisualLandmarks)
  and a new type of map (mrpt::slam::CLandmarksMap).

- Notice that sets of parameters for monocular and stereo cameras are defined in [mrpt-base] for convenience, in the classes:
        - mrpt::utils::TCamera
        - mrpt::utils::TStereoCamera
