Sentruos's profile - activity

I have a school project I've been working on, and to do so I've been using Kyle Hounslow's real-time motion tracking with color tutorial. Link: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSeFr...) and so far I've filtered out my specific color (blue) and have been able to track it consistently. What I need to know is how to draw a line and add a function to it, so that when my specified contour collides with that line, it activates triggers an action I plan on integrating in the future. I know little next to nothing about C++ so if someone could explain it to me I would find that very helpful. Thanks.

Here is my code so far:
