About the Author
Joseph Howse
might be at home right now, sitting on a sofa and writing a book,
or he might have dashed away with a suitcase full of books, cameras, and computers.
He is equipped to "see the world" or at least to do his work in computer vision.
He is a software developer at Ad-Dispatch (Canada), where he makes augmented
reality games for iOS and Android. Thanks to computer vision, the games can make
use of real-world props such as a child's drawings, toys, or blanket-forts.
He also provides training and consulting services. He is currently consulting at
Market Beat (El Salvador) on an embedded systems project that uses OpenCV
for face recognition.
He holds three masters degrees in Computer Science, International Development
Studies, and Business Administration (Dalhousie University, Canada). His
research has been published by
ISMAR
(International
Symposium on Mixed and
Augmented Realities),
and he would love to meet you there if you go.
Android Application Programming with OpenCV
is Joe's second book with Packt. His
first book,
OpenCV Computer Vision with Python,
includes an introduction to face
tracking and depth cameras (for example, Kinect) on Windows, Mac, and Linux.
Joe likes cats, kittens, oceans, and seas. Felines and saline water sustain him.
He lives with his multi-species family in Halifax, on Canada's Atlantic coast.
I am able to write—and to enjoy writing—because I am constantly
encouraged by the memory of Sam and by the companionship of
Mom, Dad, and the cats. They are my fundamentals.
I am indebted to my editors and reviewers for guiding this book to
completion. Their professionalism, courtesy, good judgment, and
passion for books are much appreciated.
