Nokia Computer Vision Library

The NokiaCV Library builds on the Symbian OS, extending imaging capabilities and standardizing the OS image internals. The library provides standard image operations, as well as a set of linear algebra operations needed in many advanced imaging applications. This serves as a building block for future advanced libraries. Some of the extensions are likely to be created by our research teams and be provided in future releases, but anyone can extend the library.

Here are some use cases where this library can be applied to:



Capture Enhancement:

With color conversions and image wrapper, we can modify images and manipulate pixels directly and easily.
Developers can make high-quality algorithms for panoramas.
Developers also can implement complex algorithms without requiring building and debugging of a platform.

Gaming/User Interfaces

The library provides robust motion estimation as a software component, it is ready for games and applications.

Post-capture Editing

Image warping operation can be used to create standard warping or in other entertainment uses.
By image compositing, we can add items to captured images.

See the library overview to get a glimpse of the features of this library.

If all of that isn’t enough for you, YOYAP! can also engage with voice calls and provide live animation that mimics the audio pattern of the caller on the other end of the line so that it looks like the character is talking to you! Long story short, YOYAP! packs a whole lot of punch into a fun little package (...)

CellTrack for Symbian 3rd Edition out now!

The work on the version for the 3rd generation of the Symbian OS is in progress - since January 2007. I finished the first version with an unsigned and untested status and plan to sign it when all things are verified by using the software. If you are interested you will need a Symbian developer account to sign it by your own. as Axel Fischer said !

CellTrack is a program to collect some phone information about the cell you are connected to - like the net monitor and so on...

Most things are equal to the old version for the 2nd Edition

New things:
- using internal or external GPS, select in settings and restart the software

Problems at the moment:
- no CBS functions available - not available in this phone api or not found at the moment
- bitmap as picture for the cell are not shown
- WCDMA signals seems a little bit of frozen - that's what the telephone api gives back
- bitmap for the signal values are only scaled so in some screen sizes it doesn't look very nice

--> A detailed review will follow in the next days ;)

[UPDATE] LogExport v1.1

LogExport is a small program to Export the Call Register data to a CSV file. It only does that thing, no more and no less. You will only find one menu: Export, the analysis task can be done by a spreadsheet. I was actually planning to give analysis options, but after reading so many subscription plans from different providers, there are some many differences which makes it hard to program.

So, it will be interesting to be able to analyze our call log. By analyzing call log, we can answer questions like: How long is my average call duration?, did I spent most of my money for SMS?, would it be better if I take this plan from the provider X over the others?.

Most provider doesn’t send the bill in digital format, and for those that do send in digital format, we need to parse the data (because they are usually in PDF format), and match the phone numbers with our phone book (because they don’t have our phonebook). It will be nice if we can just pull/export the call register data from our phone to a CSV file. We can then analyze the CSV file using any spreadsheet programs (including the default Spreadsheet on S60 3rd edition).

A new version 1.1 that uses local time (instead of UTC) is available. The default filename is now the current date/month/year. Sorry, it took me a long time for this minor bug fix.
