Rotation Estimation
===================

.. highlight:: cpp

detail::Estimator
-----------------
.. ocv:class:: detail::Estimator

Rotation estimator base class. It takes features of all images, pairwise matches between all images and estimates rotations of all cameras.

.. note:: The coordinate system origin is implementation-dependent, but you can always normalize the rotations in respect to the first camera, for instance.

::

    class CV_EXPORTS Estimator
    {
    public:
        virtual ~Estimator() {}

        void operator ()(const std::vector<ImageFeatures> &features, const std::vector<MatchesInfo> &pairwise_matches,
                         std::vector<CameraParams> &cameras)
            { estimate(features, pairwise_matches, cameras); }

    protected:
        virtual void estimate(const std::vector<ImageFeatures> &features, const std::vector<MatchesInfo> &pairwise_matches,
                              std::vector<CameraParams> &cameras) = 0;
    };

detail::Estimator::operator()
-----------------------------

Estimates camera parameters.

    :param pairwise_matches: Pairwise matches of images

    :param cameras: Estimated camera parameters

detail::Estimator::estimate
---------------------------

This method must implement camera parameters estimation logic in order to make the wrapper `detail::Estimator::operator()`_ work.
