Aruco Ros prints tag id followed by keypoints, Txyz (Traslation) and Rxyz (Rotation). Rxyz has 3 angle in rad. Which angle does it represents? Is it euler angle? If yes then, out of 6 intrinsic and 6 extrinsic convention which one does it follow? Is it Rodrigues angles or something else altogether? I have a particular case for which I know the axis for tag and camera. Can I figure out their convention of Rxyz?

It seems that aruco library uses OpenCV as backend. And if we look in the sources, we will see that it uses cv::Rodrigues(Rvec, Rot); internally, for example, in the code for Ogre integration. So, I suppose that in Aruco Ros Rxyz is in the same format.

For insight you can see aruco source. Maybe you'll need inverse operation, but still it is good starting point.

  • Thank you for the reply. I had looked into that before. Code is also doing one rotation after Rodrigues. Rodrigues angles themselves are hard to visualize. – dreamer_iiit Aug 10 '17 at 17:10
