Q: extending Trackable or getting grayscaled video frames without trackable classes

I want to implement my own tracking algorithm. Could you please give me guidance to extend Trackable or to get video frames effectively without using subclasses of Trackable? Thanks.

Try this out: [CODE] if (image->getFormat() == QCAR::RGB565) { // for rbg565, the pixels are stored as an array of shorts const short* pixels = (const short*) image->getPixels(); // get the first pixel, as a test case short pixel = pixels[0]; // convert rbg565 short va

What are your trying to accomplish? You could make a copy of the pixel buffer and make changes, then bind it as a texture and render it yourself (using OpenGL). Look into the following OpenGL methods for more information: glGenTextures glBindTexture glTexImage2D - Kim
