FAST Corner Detection for the iPhone
Version 1.0
FAST Corner Detection is an algorithm developed by Edward Rosten (Ed's resource-rich FAST webpage found here). It is a very efficient algorithm for detection of corners in pictures.
With the curteous consent and excitement of Ed, Success Labs ported the existing FAST library to the iPhone, to see it run in real-life environments and in real-time.
It currently reaches an FPS of 15, with great looking results (examples shown below). We dubbed it 1.0 to signify that it is still due some major enhancements. We discuss in greater length the code and what's still needed in our forums here.
