Answer 1

Hi M Harikumar.

Good question! Here is what I have for you.

"The aruco module is based on the ArUco library, a popular library for detection of square fiducial markers developed by Rafael Muñoz and Sergio Garrido:"

Regarding the python, I am certain you may find tutorials on the process on the openCV site.

Fiducial Marker definition: "In computer vision, a fiducial marker is a known object which can be easily identified."
