Planning the app

The final app will consist of a Python class for detecting, matching, and tracking image features, as well as a wxPython GUI application that accesses the webcam and displays each processed frame.

The project will contain the following modules and scripts:

  • feature_matching: A module containing an algorithm for feature extraction, feature matching, and feature tracking. We separate this algorithm from the rest of the application so that it can be used as a standalone module without the need for a GUI.
  • feature_matching.FeatureMatching: A class that implements the entire feature-matching process flow. It accepts an RGB camera frame and tries to locate an object of interest in it.
  • gui: A module that provides a wxPython GUI application ...
