1706 Computer Vision Source Code
As someone who has had an uphill battle in the dark with opencv, I figured I should open source some simple, instructional, programs I have written in the past 2 years. I hope this helps.
https://cmastudios.me/owncloud/public.php?service=files&t=a4410ac2a928edef612274f 6a3486745 I do apologize but I will not be releasing any previous or current competition code largely due to the satisfaction you get when you figure something out and it works. People would lose that if I just gave them a working code that can easily be adjusted between the years to track whatever needs to be tracked. |

Re: 1706 Computer Vision Source Code
Thanks for posting your examples. Do you have permission to redistribute the ebooks at that site?

Re: 1706 Computer Vision Source Code
They were all opensourced, so I assume yes....better safe than sorry, though. Let me check. The Paul dawkins one yes, the opencv ones yes (obviously), the academic paper = yes, all the algorithm books checked out, and the other paper is my sad excuse for an academic paper about the 2012 vision program.

You are awesome. By the way, is that your website? I love the MineCraft world on there

But, FIRST is about learning. If I were to outsource a program of tracking the reflective tape now, a lot of people would take it, put it on a single board computer and run it without really understanding what it does. It's the same principle as the "learning python the hard way" website. It prevents you from copying and pasting. If you write it yourself, you're more likely to remember it. I do, however, help people with individual problems and describe the technique I used this year and the functions I called. I will be putting more advanced program on our team website eventually, and it will include a program of getting distance to a target. |

You shouldn't try to decide for others what they're going to do with your code. You can't stop some people from using the code without gaining understanding, but if there's only a few who benefit from the code and get deeper understanding/interest in the problem space, I would call that a win. A good example of this is our image processing code / dashboard from last year. Team 341 released their image processing code for 2012 for others to use. Having the fully worked out example to play with was a good starting point, and we were able to translate it into python, and take the ideas and expand them into something even more awesome than the original code (IMHO). |

Re: 1706 Computer Vision Source Code
I see where you're coming from. I'll probably post the last 2 years programs sometime in the near future now thanks to you. A reason I didn't for the 2012 one was because it has very high level math in it that is not easily understood. The other one is just basic trig but fails when the floor isn't flat, but that wasn't a problem at competitions.

Re: 1706 Computer Vision Source Code
Thank you very much for the resources. I have to say I agree completely with your sentiments. While FIRST is all about "standing atop the shoulders of giants" you shouldn't be able to just copy someones code. There is an immense satisfaction when you have a mid to high level complexity of a program and you understand every in and out of it, and that simply wouldn't happen if you didn't work at it yourself.

Re: 1706 Computer Vision Source Code
I have some more programs that I am willing to share, but I just cannot figure out github or firstforge. It is in a dropbox, so if you are interested, just send me a pm with your email and I'll add you to the share list.
