The function calculates the ellipse that fits in a leastsquares sense a set of 2d points best of all. Finally, we replace the pixel values of the detected red color region with corresponding pixel values of the static background and finally generate an augmented output which creates the magical effect, converting our cloth into an invisibility cloak.
