Compatibility OpenCV >= 3.0

Goal

In this tutorial you will learn how to:

  • Use the @ref cv::FeatureDetector interface in order to find interest points. Specifically:
    • Use the cv::xfeatures2d::SURF and its function cv::xfeatures2d::SURF::detect to perform the detection process
    • Use the function @ref cv::drawKeypoints to draw the detected keypoints

\warning You need the OpenCV contrib modules to be able to use the SURF features (alternatives are ORB, KAZE, ... features).
