I am trying to detect a white color object in motion using OpenCV and OpenCL. The camera that i am using is my laptop camera of 30 fps. what i am observing is that at different locations I am getting a different fps, the camera and the code being the same. for Ex in my room when I execute the code i get a full fps of 30 while in the lab it is 22...please can anyone tell that what can be the probable reason for it and how it can be corrected...The code I have used is below...Thank You in advance...
