Tutorials On Opencv On Android Phones

I would appreciate if anyone could show me where I can get good tutorials or documentations for developing OpenCV 2.4.3 for Android. I already gone through the one on the OpenCv si

Solution 1:

I hate to break it to you, but OpenCV for Android hasn't gotten much attention till now. I haven't figured out the functions and algorithms completely myself. I did create a small image comparison optimization tool though. Also, I suggest you learn OpenCV from this book. You just need to port the code in Java.

"Porting" code from C++ to JAVA means converting the code in C++ to JAVA i.e you're changing the syntax.

So, this will become something like this.

P.S - My code isn't using a FlannMatcher, this isn't complete code porting but it's the gist. Your syntax changes but the algorithm remains as it is.

Solution 2:

If you are not satisfied with the documentation, all the books about opencv that I know of (there aren't that many out there) you can find them in the following 2 links.

There is a specific one about Android - "Android Application Programming with OpenCV". It will probably be the best source besides the official documentation.

OpenCV for Android (and more recently for desktop Java) has nothing to do with JavaCV, the first is an official port which is basically JNI wrappers on C++ functions. JavaCV is an earlier port to Java by Samuel Audet, an independent researcher (as in not officially belonging to the OpenCV team).
