I'm trying to match an image with the camera input in Android using template matching. When i try this with static 2 images like in here: OpenCV Template Matching example in Android, everything works just fine. But when I try to use the captured images from the camera, I do not get the correct result. Following is the code that I have written:
String baseDir = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath();
Mat img = Highgui.imread(baseDir + "/mediaAppPhotos/img2.png");
Mat templ = Highgui.imread(baseDir+ "/mediaAppPhotos/chars.png");
int result_cols = img.cols() - templ.cols() + 1;
int result_rows = img.rows() - templ.rows() + 1;
Mat result = new Mat(result_cols, result_rows, CvType.CV_32FC1);
// / Do the Matching and Normalize
Imgproc.matchTemplate(img, templ, result, Imgproc.TM_CCOEFF);
Core.normalize(result, result, 0, 1, Core.NORM_MINMAX, -1,
new Mat());
// / Localizing the best match with minMaxLoc
MinMaxLocResult mmr = Core.minMaxLoc(result);
Point matchLoc;
if (Imgproc.TM_CCOEFF == Imgproc.TM_SQDIFF
|| Imgproc.TM_CCOEFF == Imgproc.TM_SQDIFF_NORMED) {
matchLoc = mmr.minLoc;
} else {
matchLoc = mmr.maxLoc;
}
// / Show me what you got
Core.rectangle(
img,
matchLoc,
new Point(matchLoc.x + templ.cols(), matchLoc.y
+ templ.rows()), new Scalar(0, 255, 0));
// Save the visualized detection.
System.out.println("Writing " + baseDir+ "/mediaAppPhotos/result.png");
Highgui.imwrite(baseDir + "/mediaAppPhotos/result.png", img);
I want to this template matching to work when the image is captured from the camera as well. Any help is greatly appreciated!
