Background
Corners are features which are distinctive and reasonably invariant to viewpoint. In flat regions, regardless of the direction in which we move the window, the gradient magnitude and orientation of pixels do not change. This means there is no distinctive key point (pixel) in this region, as all pixels are the same.
