This repository contains some examples on how to use the OpenCV based Augmented Reality library ocv_ar. For now, only iOS based exampels exist, but different platforms will be available in the future.

Please note, that this is still a work in progress.

How to clone this repository

Please note that ocv_ar is included as a submodule in this repository. Therefore, the following command needs to be used to clone the repo:

Available projects in folder examples/

All projects come with a separate README file for instructions on how to compile and configure the project.

• ios/OcvARBasic - basic iOS based ocv_ar showcase that uses OpenGL for display and CvVideoCamera for grabbing the video frames from the camera
• ios/OcvARBasicNativeCam - iOS based ocv_ar showcase that uses OpenGL for display and native iOS camera APIs for grabbing the video frames. It makes use of the ocv_ar::Track class for marker tracking and smooth marker motion. This is the most full-featured version and shows the current state best.
• linux-osx/basic - basic ocv_ar example that compiles under Linux and Mac OSX
