    Return a tuple of shape parameters for a given set of corners. This is
    based on the parameters from ROS's perception library[1]. The parameters
    returned are mean x- and y- co-ordinate normalised onto the interval

    interval [0,1] and a 'skewness' metric on the inteval [0,1].

    *corners* is a Nx2 numpy array of detected corner locations.

    *frame_shape* is a pair giving the width and height of the frame.

    *cb_shape* is a pair giving the number of horizontal and vertical corners
