openCV

questions specific to openCV go here

[Shawn Schaerer]

Should openCV be the package for android robotics?  I am looking at Renderscript to increase performance of image processing algorithms.  openCV does not support render script, nor does it support openCL mobile.  Also Google does not support openCL in android.

thoughts?

Hi Shawn,

If you want to use something else than openCV, you might want to try FastCV (and maybe Vuforia too) from Qualcomm. These have been optimized for phones and tablets.

You can also use the NDK with openCV, or actually use openGL to perform the computation on the GPU.

Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for the link on FastCV.  I have not seen that one.
