Cropping Concave polygon from Image using Opencv python

Steps

1. find region using the poly points
2. create mask using the poly points
3. do mask op to crop
4. add white bg if needed

import numpy as np
import cv2

img = cv2.imread("test.png")
pts = np.array([[10,150],[150,100],[300,150],[350,100],[310,20],[35,10]])

## (1) Crop the bounding rect
rect = cv2.boundingRect(pts)
x,y,w,h = rect
croped = img[y:y+h, x:x+w].copy()

## (2) make mask
pts = pts - pts.min(axis=0)

mask = np.zeros(croped.shape[:2], np.uint8)
cv2.drawContours(mask, [pts], -1, (255, 255, 255), -1, cv2.LINE_AA)

## (3) do bit-op
dst = cv2.bitwise_and(croped, croped, mask=mask)

## (4) add the white background
bg = np.ones_like(croped, np.uint8)*255
cv2.bitwise_not(bg,bg, mask=mask)
dst2 = bg+ dst


cv2.imwrite("croped.png", croped)
cv2.imwrite("mask.png", mask)
cv2.imwrite("dst.png", dst)
cv2.imwrite("dst2.png", dst2)

You can do it in 3 steps:

1. Create a mask out of the image

   mask = np.zeros((height, width)) points = np.array([[[10,150],[150,100],[300,150],[350,100],[310,20],[35,10]]]) cv2.fillPoly(mask, points, (255))

2. Apply mask to original image

   res = cv2.bitwise_and(img,img,mask = mask)

3. Optionally you can remove the crop the image to have a smaller one

   rect = cv2.boundingRect(points) # returns (x,y,w,h) of the rect cropped = res[rect[1]: rect[1] + rect[3], rect[0]: rect[0] + rect[2]]

With this you should have at the end the image cropped

UPDATE

For the sake of completeness here is the complete code:

import numpy as np
import cv2

img = cv2.imread("test.png")
height = img.shape[0]
width = img.shape[1]

mask = np.zeros((height, width), dtype=np.uint8)
points = np.array([[[10,150],[150,100],[300,150],[350,100],[310,20],[35,10]]])
cv2.fillPoly(mask, points, (255))

res = cv2.bitwise_and(img,img,mask = mask)

rect = cv2.boundingRect(points) # returns (x,y,w,h) of the rect
cropped = res[rect[1]: rect[1] + rect[3], rect[0]: rect[0] + rect[2]]

cv2.imshow("cropped" , cropped )
cv2.imshow("same size" , res)
cv2.waitKey(0)

For the colored background version use the code like this:

import numpy as np
import cv2

img = cv2.imread("test.png")
height = img.shape[0]
width = img.shape[1]

mask = np.zeros((height, width), dtype=np.uint8)
points = np.array([[[10,150],[150,100],[300,150],[350,100],[310,20],[35,10]]])
cv2.fillPoly(mask, points, (255))

res = cv2.bitwise_and(img,img,mask = mask)

rect = cv2.boundingRect(points) # returns (x,y,w,h) of the rect
im2 = np.full((res.shape[0], res.shape[1], 3), (0, 255, 0), dtype=np.uint8 ) # you can also use other colors or simply load another image of the same size
maskInv = cv2.bitwise_not(mask)
colorCrop = cv2.bitwise_or(im2,im2,mask = maskInv)
finalIm = res + colorCrop
cropped = finalIm[rect[1]: rect[1] + rect[3], rect[0]: rect[0] + rect[2]]

cv2.imshow("cropped" , cropped )
cv2.imshow("same size" , res)
cv2.waitKey(0)
