  Initialize a point feature with polar coordinates
  \f$(\rho,\theta)\f$ using the coordinates of the point
  \f$(x,y,Z)\f$, where \f$(x,y)\f$ correspond to the perspective
  projection of the point in the image plane and \f$Z\f$ the 3D depth
  of the point in the camera frame. The values of \f$(x,y,Z)\f$ are
  expressed in meters.

  This function intends to introduce noise in the conversion from
  cartesian to polar coordinates. Cartesian \f$(x,y)\f$ coordinates
  are first converted in pixel coordinates in the image using \e
  goodCam camera parameters. Then, the pixels coordinates of the point
  are converted back to cartesian coordinates \f$(x^{'},y^{'})\f$ using
  the noisy camera parameters \e wrongCam. From these new coordinates
  in the image plane, the polar coordinates are computed by:

  \f[\rho = \sqrt{x^2+y^2}  \hbox{,}\; \; \theta = \arctan \frac{y}{x}\f]

  \param s : Visual feature \f$(\rho,\theta)\f$ and \f$Z\f$ to initialize.

  \param goodCam : Camera parameters used to introduce noise. These
  parameters are used to convert cartesian coordinates of the point \e
  p in the image plane in pixel coordinates.

  \param wrongCam : Camera parameters used to introduce noise. These
  parameters are used to convert pixel coordinates of the point in
  cartesian coordinates of the point in the image plane.

  \param p : A point with \f$(x,y)\f$ cartesian coordinates in the
  image plane corresponding to the camera perspective projection, and
  with 3D depth \f$Z\f$.

\brief Carries out the camera pose the image of a rectangle and
the intrinsec parameters, the length on x axis is known but the
proprtion of the rectangle are unknown.

This method is taken from "Markerless Tracking using Planar Structures
in the Scene" by Gilles Simon. The idea is to compute the homography H
giving the image point of the rectangle by associating them with the
coordinates (0,0)(1,0)(1,1/s)(0,1/s) (the rectangle is on the Z=0 plane).
If K is the intrinsec parameters matrix, we have  s = ||Kh1||/ ||Kh2||. s
gives us the proportion of the rectangle
