Geometry

Calculate the center of a polygon. The center is calculated as the center of the solid figure formed by the points of the polygon

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
polygon ndarray

A 2-dimensional numpy ndarray representing the vertices of the polygon.

required

Returns:

Name Type Description
Point Point

The center of the polygon, represented as a Point object with x and y attributes.

Raises:

Type Description
ValueError

If the polygon has no vertices.

Examples:

import numpy as np
import supervision as sv

polygon = np.array([[0, 0], [0, 2], [2, 2], [2, 0]])
sv.get_polygon_center(polygon=polygon)
# Point(x=1, y=1)
