Very simple examples and great to start developing with OpenCV

My problems with OpenCV were related to the installation of jdk8.0 and to make opencv compile and run on linux. Once installed you need to know about ant, eclipse, netbeans or maven.No easy for beginners but with internet and time.... Once the difficult installation done, you can find most informations on the site opencv.org.Why then 4 stars: This book is a good start for java opencv but not enough information are given about the installation and the reader is left alone to find links in internet for additional help

Das Buch beginnt sehr gut brauchbar, auch für Anfänger: Installation von OpenCV unter Eclipse, NetBeans..... Auch das erste Fallbeispiel, ein einfacher Grafik-Filter, ist noch sehr ausführlich erklärt. Danach wird das Buch schnell anspruchsvoller. Für mich - Java-Anfänger - ist das Buch dennoch insgesamt recht gut, weil viele verschiedene Methoden von OpenCV und Swing dargestellt werden. Macht Appetit nach mehr! Ich pesönlich möchte mich in Richtung Objekterkennung weiter entwickeln. Hierzu sind einige wenige Methoden beschrieben. Wer "nur" anwenden will, findet sicher Gefallen an der Begleitsoftware, die von der Verleger-Seite herunter geladen werden kann.

some of the codes in the book are incomplete and you already need to understand java coding to use that book.

A book dealing with a software library should give an overview over the library like structure, classes,.. I did not find anything like that in the book. It's just a collection of short examples.There are many mistakes in the sample code:The Java-Wrapper has switched rows and columns compared to C++, so you always get only one line from the Hough-Transformation, if you look on the cols instead of the rows of the result. The Canny-Function does not accept aperture > 7, and so on....If you know Java, you will not learn much about Computer Vision from this book. If you know Computer Vision you will not learn much about Java. There's just a lot of source code to fill the pages..
