I'm doing computer vision project for automatic card detection.
I need to separate the card from the background. I have applied the canny edge detection, using automatic parameter settings from this
The result is excellent. However, sometimes the canny is not perfect like this
I have applied cvFindContour to detect the box. However, due to "hole" on the upper side, opencv failed to detect the contour.
How do I tune the cvFindContour to detect the contour or should I tune the canny edge instead?

There are multiple possible solutions.
The simplest one may be:
if FindContours does not find a closed contour, repeat the canny filter with a slightly decreased low_threshold, until you find a closed contour. If the closed contour has roughly the right size and shape, it is a card.
