Intuitively Understanding Harris Corner Detector

https://comsci.blog/posts/intuitive-harris

Summary: This article presents an intuitive approach to understanding the Harris corner detection algorithm, which identifies corners in images. The author demonstrates a simplified implementation using Python and OpenCV, focusing on image gradients and Gaussian blur to detect corners without delving into complex mathematical concepts like Taylor series approximation. The result is a successful implementation of the Harris corner detection algorithm that is easier to understand.
