Sounds interesting. I've got a Pi sitting around doing nothing.

So we've got Pi, testers and an idea. Now we just need some coders and fudgery and we could have the Full-Bore app up and running in no time :D

I am a coder, but I've never done anything for a Pi or with computer vision. Sounds like a challenge.

How good are you with C++?
Open CV can run on Linux on the Pi with a bit of work.

The biggest obstacle would be understanding the functions available in Open CV and applying the ones we need. Beyond me though.
I've got a couple of Windows apps that could just manage what I want but there are a lot of manual steps making the whole process a bit redundant.

I've used it before but my day job is as a .Net developer. Are the wrappers for languages like Python etc?

I've never wrapped a python, can't imagine that being easy... ;)

OpenCV has a Python package, so no problems there. I have no idea if there is an ARM specific package for the Pi, but I'm guessing that it should be relatively easy to import that specific library into Python on the Pi.

Actually, I have a Pi on my desk. I'll try it in a bit.

Ok, not ideal. The only distro I have for the work Pi that contains a shell is a Kali linux one that really needs more space on /root. A swift removal of the metasploit framework though and suddenly I have a bit more space!

Python does indeed have an OpenCV library and bindings. apt-get install python-opencv seems to install it and a bunch of related libraries. I'm currently building the main package from source and will let you know how I get on.
