OpenCV Node Documentation

Hi vvvvers,

I’m just playing around with the imagepack, and I don’t know about what half of the nodes there are about. Is there any documentation anywhere. I see that for the opencv homepage my knowledge of programming is not good enough.

Greetings,

Alex

many nodes have help patches (and many more help patches are coming with new release)
is that the best way perhaps? or you think there could be a different form of documentation?

I for my part love the help patches. I just didn’t even realise there were any, since I checked out the functions I didn’t have any idea what they are about. Erode, Canny, Sobel, Dilate…

I’m not too familiar with the OpenCV nodes but I believe many of them wrap OpenCV functionality rather directly so you may find it helpful to check the OpenCV documentation or other related opencv/computer vision resources.

For example googling “opencv erode”:
https://www.google.se/search?q=opencv+erode

And the top result is a part of the OpenCV documentation explaining how erode and dilate works.

just found an interesting one :)
not sure if it can be ported to vvvv

Hey beyon, you are right. The OpenCV documentation is not that hard to understand. When I had a look at their webpresence I was a bit scared away by all that c++ talk: http://docs.opencv.org/modules/imgproc/doc/filtering.html#erode But here seem to be tutorials that might be easier to understand: http://docs.opencv.org/doc/tutorials/imgproc/table_of_content_imgproc/table_of_content_imgproc.html
