2014-04-08 08:10:19 -0600	answered a question	implementing ORB in opencv c++ Read: http://docs.opencv.org/doc/tutorials/features2d/table_of_content_features2d/table_of_content_features2d.html#table-of-content-feature2d But instead of using SurfFeatureDetector/SurfFeatureDescriptor, you should use Orb.

2014-04-08 07:02:51 -0600	answered a question	Why is SIFT faster than SURF ? It shouldn't be. I've noticed this too (I'm busy with a thesis about image stabilization). SIFT became faster than SURF in OpenCV version 2.4.8, it wasn't faster in the previous releases.. You can verify by building an older version of OpenCV. Please report back, so I know that it's really the OpenCV version that makes the difference.
