I'm pleased to announce the first public release, and a new version (still in "alpha" stage) of the
following packages on hackage:
- cv-combinators:
Functional Combinators for Computer Vision (currently mostly a high
level functional wrapper for HOpenCV)
- Includes, among others, high-level code to get images from a webcam, detect faces, and show results in a window.
- HOpenCV: Low-level
bindings for the OpenCV computer vision library (for now, quite minimal
but includes among others haar detection that can be used for face detection)
- allocated-processor:
Functional combinators for monadic actions that require
allocation and de-allocation, and (building on that) a basic FRP framework that includes a
generalized operator for expressing strictly causal systems
- RMP: Binding to code
that controls a Segway RMP.
Both RMP and cv-combinators
include demo programs (under /src). Reading the code is highly recommended for people who are interested in using the packages.
The demo program in the RMP package was used to
control the robot in the following video:
