[hugin-ptx] Re: Towards a non-patented control point detector
The name of Hugin itself comes from Norse mythology [0] (Huginn and Muninn [1], which stand for thought and memory respectively, are the ravens who tell Odin how the earth is doing). I think it may be a nice idea to steal another name there. So... what about Loki? According to its Wikipedia article [2], Loki assists the gods, and sometimes causes problems for them. Loki is a shape shifter and in separate incidents he appears in the form of a salmon and a mare.. Certainly a feature detector assists our precious Hugin, and certainly this sometimes will cause problems (bad matches etc.). I don't know about the internal working but it might do some shape shifting too. Anyway afterwards the images (shapes) will be shifted based on the feature points found. Besides that, Loki sounds a bit like localize, which is what it does, it localizes points which will be used to connect the images. Of course we could also add a cheesy backronym [3] like Locally Oriented Keypoint Indexer (depending on what it actually does under the hood this might or might not be correct), or Localizer of Orientation independent Keypoints of Interest. Anyone with a cheese-o- matic can think of even nicer backronyms, if you tune the machine correctly. ;-) [0] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norse_mythology [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huginn_and_Muninn [2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loki [3] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backronym -- Bart -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups hugin and other free panoramic software group.

Cheers, Seb I agree with Seb. There are even more occurrences like daisy chain(ing) in the traditional, electrical, IT, sexual, networking, etc. meanings. Why not keep it simple descriptive (in the panotools) tradition and couple it at the same time unmistakably to Hugin and name it hugin_cp_tool (with or without the underscores or hyphens (minus signs) or upper/lower characters in the name). The tool appendix describes what it's two purposes: namely descripting and matching. The keypoints binary can keep it's name AFAIK or anyone wanting to be creative on that one too? hugin_cp_tool or huginCPtool is not nice, it's not poetic (like something daisy like), but I think it describes unmistakably what it does. So far my 2 cents. Harry -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups hugin and other free panoramic software group.

[hugin-ptx] Re: Smartblend wrapper and Hugin 0.8 and upward till Hugin 2010.01
Hi, Hmm this had to do with quotes in filenames, which it should now handle properly.

Tested with Hugin 2009.04 official build, but it should be version independent. It will work with Hugin as long as Hugin does not the command line arguments currently supplied to enblend/smartblend. The wrapper currently strips -f and --compression, gets the output from -o and leaves everything else alone. The readme also got an update to reflect the changes. By the way it's okay to include the wrapper and accompanying readme in a future Hugin package, so users won't have to go search for the wrapper in the svn repos themselves. I have no experience with building such packages myself though.
