OpenCV for Java; Face Detection

• The of intent of this project is to create a way to easily interact with OpenCV on any platform.

Overview

• Objective - To implement an OpenCV-wrapper-library
• Purpose - to establish a small importable OpenCV-wrapper-library to simplify much of the bloat associated with current library architecture

Usage

• This dependency is hosted on packagecloud.io

Step 1 - Add Maven Repository to pom.xml

• Because this dependency is hosted on a private server, not MavenCentral, the pom.xml must be configured to search in the proper repository.

<repositories>
  <repository>
    <id>git-leon-utils</id>
    <url>https://packagecloud.io/git-leon/utils/maven2</url>
    <releases>
      <enabled>true</enabled>
    </releases>
    <snapshots>
      <enabled>true</enabled>
    </snapshots>
  </repository>
</repositories>

Step 2 - Add Maven Dependency to pom.xml

• To use this project, add the dependency to your pom.xml

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.github.git-leon</groupId>
  <artifactId>opencvl</artifactId>
  <version>1.0</version>
</dependency>

Installing XCode

Installing HomeBrew

Installing OpenCV

• brew an installation of opencv version 3.

  • brew install opencv@3
  • Should you have difficulties finding the correct HomeBrew formula, I have provided you with an exact copy here

• Edit OpenCV formula to enable java support.

  • brew edit opencv
    • change property from -DBUILD_opencv_java=OFF to -DBUILD_opencv_java=ON

• brew an installation of opencv from local source

  • brew install --build-from-source opencv

Checking OpenCV java installation

• Ensure a version of OpenCV can be found in your local machine directory. (Edit the directory version)
  • /usr/local/Cellar/opencv/3.x.x/share/OpenCV/java/
