Where's Waldo?
Posted: 2009-04-03T11:03:41-07:00
Is it possible (using ImageMagick) taking (for instance) a "Where's Waldo?" poster and (with a copy of Waldo's image, exactly as it appears in the poster) to identify Waldo in the poster?
Obviously I am looking for a real-world image recognition system. I am taking a screen capture of charts with arrows on them, these arrows are not always in the same place, but if they do pop-up I'd like to be aware of it. The arrows are always the same dimension, color, identical; but they won't be in the same place. The rest of the chart will change over time, so I need a solution that can recognize the arrow (overlayed on the chart).
