Image Detection Plant Identification Software

This software identifies plants by associating an image capture of its leaf to species relationship. There are other factors included in my algorithm, but that part is still under further development.

The taxonomy algorithm is based on my past real world experience performing naturalist services amongst different conservation centers in different parts of the USA.

Plant taxonomy is the science that finds, identifies, describes, classifies, and names plants. Thus making it one of the main branches of taxonomy(the science that finds, describes, classifies, and names living things).

Technology Resources:

OpenCV: http://opencv.org/

OpenCV is released under a BSD license and hence it’s free for both academic and commercial use. It has C++, C, Python and Java interfaces and supports Windows, Linux, Mac OS, iOS and Android.

EmguCV: http://www.emgu.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

Emgu CV is a cross platform .Net wrapper to the OpenCV image processing library. Allowing OpenCV functions to be called from .NET compatible languages such as C#, VB, VC++, IronPython etc. The wrapper can be compiled by Visual Studio, Xamarin Studio and Unity, it can run on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, iOS, Android and Windows Phone.
