libmv is not a generic computer vision library. it is focusing only on match moving and structure from motion. While OpenCV or VXL are only bricks which may help you implement match moving algorithms, the goal of libmv is to implement a complete tracking system in the library so that an application (like Blender) can use it without any algorithmic knowledge.
libmv probably got the attention of Blender community because the first iteration was developed to integrate with Blender. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hswISipCv2M It is now being rewritten as a complete modular framework with clean interfaces and automatic testing. I think improving libmv and using it in Blender is the best way to implement the first open source match moving application. _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
