Library to analyse picture (colors, size)?

Shohreh · May 7, 2012

Hello

To get started with Basic4Android, I'd like to help a friend who works as a nurse and develop an application that can take a picture of a wound and return infos about its colors and size, so as to monitor how the wound evolves and what type of bandage to use.

I read about OpenCV, and I was wondering...

if OpenCV is the right library for this (apparently, it does real-time image processing, while I just need it to analyze pictures taken by the smartphone)
if not, are there other libraries available for Basic4Android that I should check instead?

Thank you.

OpenCV is still not supported by Basic4android. As discussed in another thread, I didn't find it working reliable enough. It will probably be added in the future.

What exactly do you need to do with the image?

Thanks for your help.

They needs infos about the wound: Its size (angle must be taken into account, as it makes an object look bigger/smaller) and the different colors it contains. That way, they know if the wound is healing and how fast, and which bandage they should use at that point.

I guess it's no easy task to write a library that can do this, but have no idea how expensive they come.
