Image recognition and camera positioning with OpenCV. A tourist guide application.

OpenCV Python bindings perform SIFT/SURF-style keypoint detection and descriptor matching, with a SURF approximation used for speed; camera calibration uses chessboard photos to get intrinsics and undistort images; a homography from matched keypoints locates the picture corners and a solvePnP and Rodrigues step yields rotation/translation to reject false positives. Processing runs server-side for a Google Glass tourist guide, tested on about a 10-image library in the Palatino site; images must be in focus and multiple library views are required for robust 3D cases.
