I’m planning to start an application comprises of augmented reality in android.
Proposed application should do the following :
-
Whenever user come across certain logo, he will capture that logo by using device’s camera.
-
Then the captured image will undergo pattern-matching and will be compared with the predefined image present in the database.
-
Based on matching, certain action will take place(This is not the matter of concern as of now).
How do I start???
I came across the similar questions on SO, but haven’t got any satisfactory info.
I had a glance at openCV but it says : It has C++, C, Python and soon Java interfaces running on Windows, Linux, Android and Mac.
As I’m using Mono for Android, it uses C# for development. So will openCV work in this scenario?
Also I’m relatively new to android development and just beginner when it comes to using Mono for Android.
I know I’m being bit unclear in this que, but I really don’t have any idea about augmented reality so any tutorial/book to start with in order to develop the app based on AR will be of great help.
Android ARToolkit can be a good start point
