opencv, aruco marker tracking and high resolution cameras
Hello all, I need to track several aruco markers using Open CV. the problem is the tracking space is large (about 4'x6' square table). A HD webcam simply does not produce enough pixel density for OpenCV. Does openCV work with high resolution video feeds? I was thinking of hooking up a DSLR with a realtime capture card, and feed that to OpenCV. Wondering if there are any resolution restrictions. (barring that, there obviously will be be a performance hit, but that may be fine as my application does not require high framerates)
Anything can work if you pay attention to the pixel size vs. object element width, and observe focus and depth of field needs. For example, an 8 Megapixel Raspberry Pi camera will give you pretty good resolution and is inexpensive. It's a rolling shutter so requires steady lighting and a fairly static scene. It may be acceptable as a lower performance but still low cost alternative.
