The algorithm, which is well suited for high speed VLSI hardware implementation, analyses the distance of the contour points to the object boundary secants and is therefore called secant distance analysis (SDA) corner detection.enBilderkennungBildverarbeitungchain codecontour tracingcorner point detectionimage processingpattern recognition621conference paper
