Computer Vision & Augmented Reality library
Summary
ArcV (pronounced "Ark V") stands for "Augmented Reality and Computer Vision [Library]" (this name may change in the future, not all that original as it is, I know).
Written in C++, it is primarily developed for learning purposes. It is intended to be optimized and to run relatively fast, even on low-end/old computers and smartphones.
This library is available for Linux and Windows. It is also especially aimed to be running on Android.

ArcV is...
... A Computer Vision library
Computer Vision implies vision by... computer. That being said, how can there be vision without a bit of image processing?
| Objectives | Implemented |
|---|---|
| Implementing Matrix/Vector classes | Yes |
| Loading (reading) an image (JPEG/PNG/TGA/BMP/BPG) | Yes (PNG) |
| Saving (writing) an image | Yes (PNG) |
| Changing colorspace | Yes |
| Convolution filtering | Yes |
| Operations on images (rotation, flip, thresholding) | Yes |
| Detecting basic features (corners, lines, circles...) | In progress |
| Detecting advanced features (object recognition, ORB algorithm) | No |
| Handle windowing | Yes |
| Getting stream from webcam | Yes (Linux) |
May be decided to be added:
- Facial recognition
- Motion analysis/tracking
- Optical flow
- Image restoration
- Scene reconstruction
... An Augmented Reality library
The principle of Augmented Reality here is to place virtual elements over a picture or a video stream, this superposition having to be as realistic as possible.
This part will not be begun before a while: though being the most interesting, it makes less sense to move onto AR while CV isn't advanced enough.
| Objectives | Implemented |
|---|---|
| Fiducial markers recognition | No |
| Pose estimation | No |
| 3D models integration (OpenGL/Vulkan) | No |
To be continued!
