Delete duplicate values from dictionary

I need to delete the elements that are duplicated in a dictionary like this:

{
    0: array([506, 162]),
    1: array([507, 162]),
    2: array([506, 163]),
    3: array([506, 162]),
    4: array([506, 162]),
    5: array([507, 162]),
    6: array([506, 162]),
    7: array([507, 162]),
    8: array([509, 163]),
    9: array([509, 163]),
    10: array([506, 162]),
    11: array([507, 162]),
    12: array([509, 163]),
    13: array([509, 163]),
    14: array([508, 163]),
    15: array([509, 162]),
    16: array([509, 162]),
    17: array([506, 163]),
    18: array([507, 162]),
    19: array([509, 163]),
    20: array([509, 163]),
    21: array([509, 164]),
    22: array([509, 162]),
    23: array([510, 162]),
    24: array([510, 163]),
    25: array([511, 156]),
    26: array([511, 161]),
    27: array([543, 167]),
    28: array([515, 161]),
    29: array([515, 162]),
    30: array([545, 165]),
    31: array([506, 163]),
    32: array([507, 162]),
    33: array([509, 163]),
    34: array([511, 162]),
    35: array([510, 162]),
    36: array([515, 162]),
    37: array([546, 167]),
    38: array([512, 162]),
    39: array([546, 169]),
    40: array([516, 164]),
    41: array([516, 164]),
    42: array([516, 163]),
    43: array([517, 164]),
    44: array([517, 163]),
    45: array([227, 95]),
    46: array([516, 163]),
    47: array([517, 163]),
    48: array([516, 164]),
}

I tried with this code:

for key, centroide in ctrObjetosID.items():
if centroide in centroidesResult.values():
    continue
centroidesResult[key] = centroide

But I get an error

The truth value of an array with more than one element is ambiguous. Use a.any() or a.all()

Thanks for your help

Try to change your code to the following:

for key, centroide in ctrObjetosID.items():
    if len(centroidesResult.values()) == 0: # this check is necessary to prevent DeprecationWarning and make it save for future use
        centroidesResult[key] = centroide
        continue
    if ((centroide == np.asarray(list(centroideResult.values()))).sum(axis=1) == 2).any(): 
    # the equality comparision generates an elementwise boolean numpy array. 
    # The sum along axis 1 of this will generate an integer value for every entry in centroideResults
    # and if both centroide coordinates are matching the result in the appropriate row is 2
    # The any() checks at last, if any matching coordinates are found (rows with sum 2 are present).
        continue
    centroidesResult[key] = centroide
