Hello.

I'm a student who is trying to create a program which creates threshold image(using inrange, for use in color blob tracking)

However, I'm stuck with displaying the threshold image on JavaCameraView(for testing purposes).

According to other example and documentations, it seems that modifying OnCameraFrame(CvCameraViewFrame inputFrame)'s inputFrame.rgba() changes the displayed frame. However, I cannot see the modifications I made to the given frame(in the code below, it's mRgba in OnCameraFrame)

I tried to do the following

  1. input text overlay to the frame using puttext

  2. make the frame to be gray using Imgproc.cvtcolor

  3. tried to make thresholdimage using processImage(created inside the code)

None of them change the frame displayed.

I hope to see why the modifications don't work.

PS. The Phone I used was Galaxy S4 LTE-A SK Telecom (SHV-E330S) with OpenCV 2.4.6

PPS. Same thing happens in Nexus S with CM10

NOTE : I just discovered that i converted(I don't know why...) setCvCameraViewListener to comment(//). After reviving that line, it works very well. Ah! My precious 3 hours!

Just wanted to write the answer and saw you noticed it :D If you comment out that line, your OnCameraFrame will never be called since you dont "listen" to the camera. The inputframe will just be passed directly to the camera view.
