Full Post on my New Blog In my previous post, I have shown how to use Kinect with OpenCV using Freenect library. I and Siddharth have been working on Kinect for gesture recognition and so far we are able to detect … Continue reading
Searching for free bathroom to bathe in cold water on a cold morning in Bangalore, well, that’s how the Design Innovation workshop started for all of us who were placed at RIE. Despite of the terrible accomodation, the workshop turned … Continue reading
A Point Cloud is a set of vertices in a three-dimensional coordinate system. As OpenCV is used to work with two dimensional objects(images), PCL is used to work with three dimensional objects(3D space). Vertices usually represent X, Y and Z … Continue reading
This is the third post in the Python/C API series. In previous posts, Python/C API: #include<Python.h> and Python/C API: Reference Counting, I have shown how to extend Python with C API and importance of memory management in Python. In this … Continue reading
5th semester is finally over and let’s just say I have been to the dark side. Moving on. The most important aspect of Python is memory management. As mentioned in the earlier post of this series, PyObject* is a pointer … Continue reading
People are strange when you are stranger. So stop being stranger and start writing emails. You’d get replies. I came across this amazing computer vision library for Python – Mahots. It has great support for Image Processing and the most … Continue reading
Scale-invariant feature transform (or SIFT) is an algorithm in computer vision to detect and describe local features in images. The algorithm was published by David Lowe in 1999.SIFT is a method to detect distinct, invariant image feature points, which easily … Continue reading
So my mid-terms got over this Monday and I had no idea whatsoever what happened in the 1 week of exams. I started working on SURF feature detector based Tracking algorithm using OpenCV python bindings and SimpleCV. I couldn’t complete … Continue reading
In my previous post Configuring Boost::Python and Hello Boost, I have shown how to configure Boost::Python. I have managed to use OpenCV C++ with Python, using Boost::Python. I have been able to load and show an image successfully. OpenCV C++: First, … Continue reading
