Currently

  • tracker::VideoCapture matches opencv naming, a class which is used to get frames of video from cameras.
  • cfg::Camera parameters used by VideoCapture to open and read a camera.
  • cfg::VideoStream contains a cfg::Camera, plus any parameters required to process the frames from cameras.
  • cfg::CameraCalib calibration for a camera.
  • tracker::CapturedFrame a single frame and the timestamp it was captured at.

Definitions for some real pointless discussion

  • Video - visual media product featuring moving images, a sequence of pictures.
  • Capture - take possession of
  • Video Capture - google: mostly capture cards
  • Camera - a device for capturing a photographic image or recording a video.
  • Stream - to send forth or discharge in a stream
  • Video Stream - google: tv streaming services
  • Image - array of pixels
  • to image - instead of capture?
  • Frame - a single image in a sequence of pictures

I'm looking for alternatives, or thoughts on current names.
