NenaMark2

Mon, 23 May 2011 16:14:53 +0000

NenaMark2 is an OpenGL|ES 2.0 benchmark for high-end mobile devices, continuing where the popular NenaMark1 left off with more advanced graphical effects and higher resolution graphics.

Unlike many other benchmarks, NenaMark measures performance using realistic scenes that could be taken from a typical game and presents the result in frames per second, i.e. providing an intuitive performance number that can be used for realistic comparisons between different devices.

Benchmark results from a wide variety of devices are available on the NenaMark site (http://nena.se/nenamark).

Effects:
- Skeletal Animation (bones matrix animation), trees.
- Morph Target Animation (blend vertex sets), sun flowers along house wall.
- Bump Mapping (using normal map), stone walls on house.
- Water (reflections, normal animation, fresnel effect), the lake.
- Cloud System (advanced particle system), clouds.
- Cube Map Reflections (w/ dynamic cube map generation), windows on house.
- Smoke (advanced particle system), smoke from chimney.
- Shadow Mapping (dynamic shadow mapping), terrain.
- Texture Channel Animation, sparkling sun.
- Smooth Gradient Animation, sky hemisphere.
- Dynamic lighting (per vertex diffuse lighting), entire scene.
- Lens flare, lens flare from sun at low altitude.

- run button can be triggered with KEYCODE_DPAD_CENTER or KEYCODE_BUTTON_START for automated benchmarking

OCR Test

Fri, 13 May 2011 07:05:29 +0000

Experimental app for optical character recognition (OCR).

Runs the Tesseract 3.02 open source OCR engine to find text in images captured by the device camera.

This app runs OCR on your device--without uploading your images to a server--and is suitable for recognizing individual words or short phrases of text. Translation (powered by Microsoft/Google) can be run after OCR.

The default single-shot capture runs OCR on a snapshot image that's captured when you click the shutter button, like a regular photo.

When the "continuous preview" checkbox is checked, the app shows a dynamic, real-time display of what the device is recognizing right beside the camera viewfinder. The continuous preview mode works best on a fast device.

USING THIS APP

- Point the device at some text and touch the on-screen shutter button to start OCR.

- To copy text to the clipboard or share text, long-press on the text after pressing the shutter button.

- For recognizing individual Chinese/Japanese/Korean characters, set the page segmentation mode to "single character."

RECOGNITION ACCURACY

- Various factors can cause the OCR to fail: uneven illumination, stylized text, or text without enough contrast from the background. Try to have good lighting.

- Hold the device steady, and be sure the picture is in focus.

- If you need to scan a large block of text or an entire document, consider using a flatbed document scanner or a paid server-based OCR app (such as Scanthing) instead.

LANGUAGES

- This app supports several languages not supported by Google Goggles/Google Translate.

- Supported languages for OCR: Arabic, Bulgarian, Catalan, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian (Latin), Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Tagalog, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.

- Arabic OCR requires a large amount of RAM. If your device doesn't have enough RAM, the app will quit during OCR.

DEVELOPMENT NOTES

- This is an open source project. The source code is available at https://github.com/rmtheis/android-ocr.

- Since the release of this app, Google Goggles has added a "continuous mode" and Google Translate has added OCR-based translations. There is also one VC-funded startup that has used this app as a starting point.

- Thanks to the contributors: Spoorthi, Hunvil, Jingjing, Xuyuan, and Mandar.

fixed one big bug, suggest all users update to this new version

ARDrone Flight

Fri, 03 Dec 2010 10:54:12 +0000

Android ARDrone Flight Application.
Control the AR.Drones and record video.

ARDrone Flight has optional Platinum Features including support for V2 Drones, Flight Animations and Autonomous Mode via in-app payments.

See ARDrone Flight discussion on ARDrone-Flyers.com forums.

V2 AR.Drones require a powerful Android CPU - Galaxy S is a minimum requirement when using local video recording with overlays.

This software uses libraries from the FFmpeg project under the LGPLv2.1.
This software also uses the unmodified JAR of Apache Commons Net licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0.

See http://www.meavydev.co.uk/ARDrone.html

Features:

Flight Animations:
* Flight animations allow a sequence of flight animations to be built up and then played back when the Drone is flying. This includes V2 only flips.
See http://www.meavydev.co.uk/ARDrone.html#FlightAnimations

Autonomous Mode:
* Uses you device GPS with Mapsforge maps to fly the Drone under autonomous control.
Uses offline mapping from Mapsforge.
See http://code.google.com/p/mapsforge/

N.B. Autonomous mode is why the Location permission is used.
See http://www.meavydev.co.uk/ARDrone.html#Autonomous

Video Recording:
* Video recording to a file and/or USB recording on V2 Drones.
* Local video recording with optional overlay of drone flight information. When used without overlay this is in HD for V2 drones.

UI Configuration:
* Fully configurable UI.
* Control via tilt, on-screen joysticks or USB gamepads.
* Individual icon, text and joystick scaling.
* Separate joystick deadzones and sensitivities.
* Colour slider to change on-screen UI colour of joystick controls.
* Transparency slider to adjust visibility of UI.

Flight Control:
* Fly by tilt, on-screen joysticks or USB gamepads.
* Use normal, absolute or combined yaw flight modes.

Profiles:
* Create multiple profiles for uses like indoor and outdoor settings; day or dusk UI; HUD on/off etc.
* Profiles can be switched quickly from a UI icon.

GamePad Mapping:
* Gamepad mapping allows the mapping of USB gamepad buttons and joysticks.
See http://www.meavydev.co.uk/ARDrone.html#GamePadMap

Update Drone firmware:
* Both the official Parrot download site and latest unofficial firmware downloads.

NenaMark1

Wed, 21 Jul 2010 12:40:41 +0000

NenaMark is a benchmark/demo of OpenGL ES 2.0, using programmable shaders for graphical effects such as reflections, dynamic shadows, parametric surfaces, particles and different light models to push the GPU to its limits.
Enjoy!

Note that high-end devices are better served by NenaMark2 as they tend to hit the framerate limit (~60 fps) with NenaMark1.

Recent changes:
- Fixed problem with Samsung Galaxy S II (which caused version 1.6 to not work at all on that device)
- Improved linking from app to score site: http://nena.se/nenamark
- Performance scores should be the same as with 1.5/1.7. If you do see big differences please consider sending a bug report to info@nena.se with details of your device&configuration.

Neocore

Thu, 17 Dec 2009 14:52:23 +0000
