Algorithm

Finding the chessboard

OpenCV has a function findChessboardCorners which is usually used for camera calibration and not really intended for the use case of "real chessboards".

Still it is very helpful and used as a basis for the BoardFinder.

Initializing the BoardFinder

The board finder is initialized with an image. Optionally you can specify the Video instance to be used.

finder = BoardFinder(image,video=video)
