Actually this is JavaCV. I tried to draw the hull around the object but nothing shows up on the image.

I tried to draw a convex hull and convexitydefects around an object using these line in the above mentioned code.

       hullSeq = cvConvexHull2(bigContour, hullStorage, CV_COUNTER_CLOCKWISE, 0);

                    defects = cvConvexityDefects(bigContour, hullSeq, defectsStorage);  

                    cvDrawContours(img1,defects , CvScalar.BLUE, CvScalar.BLUE, 1,0,0);

                    cvDrawContours(img1,hullSeq , CvScalar.BLUE, CvScalar.BLUE, 1,0,0);

It doesn't show anything.drawing a circle to the COG works but the convext hull is not drawn.

I found this tutorial in JavaCV how to detect a hand gesture. But it doesn't show how to draw the convexhull or a polygon around the palm. Can someone tell me how to do that in this example?

it run out that the method "getPath" gives an additional "\" at the beginning. Adding ".substring(1)" tot he "getPath" method fixed this by removing the first unwanted "\". check the line below. Make sure to put .substring to every getPath() method.

 String url1 = getClass().getResource("lena.png").getPath().substring(1);

    // Create a face detector from the cascade file in the resources

    CascadeClassifier faceDetector = new CascadeClassifier(getClass().getResource("/lbpcascade_frontalface.xml").getPath());
    Mat image = Highgui.imread(getClass().getResource("/lena.png").getPath());

    // Detect faces in the image.
    // MatOfRect is a special container class for Rect.
    MatOfRect faceDetections = new MatOfRect();
    faceDetector.detectMultiScale(image, faceDetections);

    System.out.println(String.format("Detected %s faces", faceDetections.toArray().length));

    // Draw a bounding box around each face.
    for (Rect rect : faceDetections.toArray()) {
        Core.rectangle(image, new Point(rect.x, rect.y), new Point(rect.x + rect.width, rect.y + rect.height), new Scalar(0, 255, 0));
    }

    // Save the visualized detection.
    String filename = "faceDetection.png";
    System.out.println(String.format("Writing %s", filename));
    Highgui.imwrite(filename, image);
  }
}

public class HelloOpenCV {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    System.out.println("Hello, OpenCV");

    // Load the native library.
    System.loadLibrary(Core.NATIVE_LIBRARY_NAME);
    new DetectFaceDemo().run();
  }

I tried this tutorial mentioned above and got the following error.

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at javapplication15.DetectFaceDemo.run(HelloOpenCV.java:28)
at javapplication15.HelloOpenCV.main(HelloOpenCV.java:56)
Java Result: 1

I am pretty sure that the files are present in corresponding folders as mentioned in the Tutorial. I think this is a path issue and I tried things like giving the absolute path and other things that can be found online. Still not luck.

I am suing NetBeans 8.0, OpenCV 2.4.9 and Windows 8

is a a4tech web cam ok?

a4tech cam

Is above a4tech camera compatible? should I buy a logitech one ?

Are all the cameras compatible?

Thank you.
