The Harris corner detector is a popular interest point detector due to its invariance to rotation, scale as well as illumination variation and robustness to image noise. The Harris corner detector is based on the local auto-correlation function of a signal; where the local auto-correlation function measures the local changes of the signal with patches shifted by a small amount in different directions.
