Shi-Tomasi Corner Detector

The Shi-Tomasi Corner Detector is a method used in image analysis to identify points in a picture that are stable and distinct, known as "corners." These corners remain recognizable even if the image shifts or changes slightly. The technique analyzes the intensity patterns around each point to find those with significant changes in multiple directions, indicating a corner. It's widely used in tasks like motion tracking and 3D reconstruction because it reliably finds key features that help computers understand and interpret visual information.
