How to run the program

• The latest python program is the 4_points.py program
• This program utilises the default API provided by the IDS camera -> UI-3480ML-M-GL
• Just open this in pycharm environment and ensure that the two items are within the sights of the camera, if not the program may crash
• If you want the logic for calculating the midpoint based on the cv2.goodFeaturesToTrack() function, please refer to lines 206 to 265 of the 4_points.py document
