1. A computer-readable medium storing executable code, which, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to:
- capture an image of a finder pattern using a camera;
locate a predetermined point in the finder pattern;
use the predetermined point to identify multiple boundary points on a perimeter associated with the finder pattern;
identify fitted boundary lines based on the multiple boundary points; and
locate feature points using the fitted boundary lines.

Abstract
In some embodiments, a computer-readable medium stores executable code, which, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to: capture an image of a finder pattern using a camera; locate a predetermined point within the finder pattern; use the predetermined point to identify multiple boundary points on a perimeter associated with the finder pattern; identify fitted boundary lines based on the multiple boundary points; and locate feature points using the fitted boundary lines.
