    Octave Forge

    Octave Forge

    A collection of packages providing extra functionality for GNU Octave

    Octave Forge is a central location for collaborative development of packages for GNU Octave. The Octave Forge packages expand Octave's core functionality by providing field specific features via Octave's package system. See https://octave.sourceforge.io/packages.php for a list of all available packages. GNU Octave is a high-level interpreted language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides capabilities for the numerical solution of linear and nonlinear problems, and for performing other numerical experiments. It also provides extensive graphics capabilities for data visualization and manipulation. Octave is normally used through its interactive command line interface, but it can also be used to write non-interactive programs. The Octave language is quite similar to Matlab so that most programs are easily portable. Refer to https://www.octave.org for more information.

    OpenH264

    OpenH264

    Open Source H.264 Codec

    Cisco has taken their H.264 implementation and open-sourced it under BSD license terms. Development and maintenance will be overseen by a board from the industry and the open-source community. Furthermore, we have provided a binary form suitable for inclusion in applications across a number of different operating systems and made this binary module available for download from the Internet. We will not pass on our MPEG-LA licensing costs for this module, and based on the current licensing environment, this will effectively make H.264 free for use on supported platforms. OpenH264 is a codec library which supports H.264 encoding and decoding. It is suitable for use in real-time applications such as WebRTC. Constrained Baseline Profile up to Level 5.2 (Max frame size is 36864 macro-blocks). Arbitrary resolution, not constrained to multiples of 16x16. Rate control with adaptive quantization, or constant quantization.

    Vcpkg

    Vcpkg

    C++ Library Manager for Windows, Linux, and MacOS

    Vcpkg helps you manage C and C++ libraries on Windows, Linux and MacOS. This tool and ecosystem are constantly evolving, and we always appreciate contributions! After you've gotten vcpkg installed and working, you may wish to add tab completion to your shell. With CMake, you will still need to find_package and the like to use the libraries. Check out the CMake section for more information, including on using CMake with an IDE. In classic mode, vcpkg produces an "installed" tree, whose contents are changed by explicit calls to vcpkg install or vcpkg remove. The installed tree is intended for consumption by any number of projects: for example, installing a bunch of libraries and then using those libraries from Visual Studio, without additional configuration. Because the installed tree is not associated with an individual project, it's similar to tools like brew or apt, except that the installed tree is vcpkg-installation-local, rather than global to a system or user.

    half

    C++ library for half precision floating point arithmetics.

    This is a C++ header-only library to provide an IEEE-754 conformant half-precision floating point type along with corresponding arithmetic operators, type conversions and common mathematical functions. It aims for both efficiency and ease of use, trying to accurately mimic the behaviour of the builtin floating point types at the best performance possible. It automatically uses and provides C++11 features when possible, but stays completely C++98-compatible when neccessary.

    IRremote Arduino Library

    IRremote Arduino Library

    Infrared remote library for Arduino, send and receive infrared signals

    This library enables you to send and receive using infra-red signals on an Arduino. You can use any pin for sending now like you are used to receiving. Simultaneous sending and receiving. See the SendAndReceive example. No more need to use 32-bit hex values in your code. Instead, a (8 bit) command value is provided for decoding (as well as a 16-bit address and a protocol number). Protocol values comply to protocol standards, i.e. NEC, Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, and JVC decode and send LSB first. Supports more protocols, since adding a protocol is quite easy now. Better documentation and more examples. Compatible with tone() library, see ReceiveDemo. Supports more platforms, since the new structure allows to easily add a new platform. Feedback LED also for sending. Ability to generate a non-PWM signal to just simulate an active low receiver signal for direct connection to existent receiving devices without using IR.

    Real-time multi-person keypoint detection library for body, face, etc.

    OpenPose has represented the first real-time multi-person system to jointly detect human body, hand, facial, and foot keypoints (in total 135 keypoints) on single images. It is authored by Ginés Hidalgo, Zhe Cao, Tomas Simon, Shih-En Wei, Yaadhav Raaj, Hanbyul Joo, and Yaser Sheikh. It is maintained by Ginés Hidalgo and Yaadhav Raaj. OpenPose would not be possible without the CMU Panoptic Studio dataset. We would also like to thank all the people who has helped OpenPose in any way. 15, 18 or 25-keypoint body/foot keypoint estimation, including 6 foot keypoints. Runtime invariant to number of detected people. 2x21-keypoint hand keypoint estimation. Runtime depends on number of detected people. 70-keypoint face keypoint estimation. Runtime depends on number of detected people. Input: Image, video, webcam, Flir/Point Grey, IP camera, and support to add your own custom input source (e.g., depth camera).

    LevelDB

    LevelDB

    A fast key-value storage library

    LevelDB is a library of persistent key values. Written at Google, it contains keys and values that are arbitrary byte arrays, ordered within the key value store according to a user-specified comparator function. LevelDB is not an SQL database and does not support SQL queries or indexes. It simply provides an ordered mapping from string keys to string values. Data is stored already sorted by key, though callers can override the sort order through a custom comparison function. It supports forward and backward iteration as well as transient snapshots, and automatically compresses data via the Snappy compression library.

    rtabmap

    rtabmap

    RTAB-Map library and standalone application

    RTAB-Map (Real-Time Appearance-Based Mapping) is a RGB-D, Stereo and Lidar Graph-Based SLAM approach based on an incremental appearance-based loop closure detector. The loop closure detector uses a bag-of-words approach to determine how likely a new image comes from a previous location or a new location. When a loop closure hypothesis is accepted, a new constraint is added to the map’s graph, then a graph optimizer minimizes the errors in the map. A memory management approach is used to limit the number of locations used for loop closure detection and graph optimization so that real-time constraints on large-scale environments are always respected. RTAB-Map can be used alone with a handheld Kinect, a stereo camera or a 3D lidar for 6DoF mapping, or on a robot equipped with a laser rangefinder for 3DoF mapping.

    The Point Cloud Library (PCL) is a standalone, large scale, open project for 2D/3D image and point cloud processing. PCL is released under the terms of the BSD license, and thus free for commercial and research use. Whether you’ve just discovered PCL or you’re a long time veteran, this page contains links to a set of resources that will help consolidate your knowledge on PCL and 3D processing. An additional Wiki resource for developers is available too. To simplify both usage and development, we split PCL into a series of modular libraries. PCL is cross-platform, and has been successfully compiled and deployed on Linux, MacOS, Windows, and Android. To simplify development, PCL is split into a series of smaller code libraries, that can be compiled separately. This modularity is important for distributing PCL on platforms with reduced computational or size constraints.
