How to detect face by portrait mode?

Hi, I'm studying OpenCV recently.

OpenCV for Android sample code(2.4.6) is tested.

I have some wonder.

I can detect face by sample code(OpenCV Sample - face-detection). but, can't detect face by portrait mode(vertical mode) on android device.

First, I try set Front-Camera by portrait mode.

//added code in onCameraFrame() Core.flip(mRgba, mRgba, 1);

Still do not recognize face.

How to detect face by portrait mode?

Thank you.

Actually, you need rotate your input video by 90 degree , flip is not enough,

As you noticed, many camera apps in Android devices only support landscape mode, fairly support protraint mode.

First, you can make your activity not to be a fullscreen app, I mean, remain the title bar or status bar. These UI elements will help you to know the real orientation of you activity.

Second, adjust your camera view suit for approperity activity oritentation. If you activity is portrait mode, you should do nothing. If you activity is landscape mode, you should rotate your input video by 90 degree ( transpose+flip ) , so you should detect the faces in portrait oritentaion.

Thank you . but I have no idea. I'm Android Programming and OpenCV beginner. Please explain more easily by Example Code(OpenCV Sample - face-detection).

I tried-

IplImage my_image = (IplImage) grayImage; CvMat mat = my_image.asCvMat();

    int cols = mat.cols();
    int rows = mat.rows();
    IplImage DstImage = cvCreateImage(cvSize(rows, cols), IPL_DEPTH_8U, 1);


   int angle = ((180 / 90) % 4) * 90;

    //0 : flip vertical; 1 flip horizontal
    int flip_horizontal_or_vertical = angle > 0 ? 1 : 0;
    int  number = Math.abs(angle / 90);
    for(int i = 0; i != number; ++i){
        cvTranspose(grayImage, DstImage);        
        cvFlip(grayImage,DstImage,flip_horizontal_or_vertical);
    }

But couldnt get anything

try to
IplImage DstImage0 = cvCreateImage(cvSize(rows, cols), IPL_DEPTH_8U, 1); ... cvTranspose(grayImage, DstImage0);
cvFlip(DstImage0,DstImage,flip_horizontal_or_vertical);

and you should modifiy code, so if you detected face, output some infos to logcat. I think you draw the face rectangle in a internal mat, so you can't see the rectangle in the final output view.

It's not detect face by portrait mode. only detect face by landscape mode.(Original Source :OpenCV Sample - face-detection). I want to detect face by portrait mode.
