I used OpenCV functions to recognize an object (they have object recognition routines). In my case I just logged recognition success, but you could also run a subroutine based on an object being recognized. There is discussion, I believe in the Chit Chat subforum (found it: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/say-hello-to-opencv-for-b4a.78255/), about an OpenCV library that will be available to B4A. I believe it's in beta, but it may be worth looking at. Barry. Last edited: May 21, 2017 Upvote 0
