Now imagine Tinder users having access to FB-quality face recognition software? I can see GOOG offering that feature as part of their image search in the not-so-distant future.


I like your comment. Do you have any examples of C# libraries that use the ideas you're talking about? Or even better - do you know of a tutorial or something where I can clearly see the two approaches compared and contrasted?


Nancy: http://nancyfx.org

Contrast that with Microsoft's WCF: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/105273/Create-RESTful-WC...

Quartz: http://www.quartz-scheduler.net (hint: it's gigantic)

Contrast with

        private void ScheduleRepeated(Action task, TimeSpan interval)
        {
            Task.Run(async () =>
            {
                while (true)
                {
                    await Task.Delay(timeSpan);
                    task();
                }
            });
        }


Hey, great job here! Two questions:

1) Is it at all feasible to do the stabilisation on the fly so that the screen shows already-stabilised video (if not then why)?

2) Do you envisage building an API so that a third-party app can use your technology?


Hey Ivanlubenko,

On the fly stabilization is not really an option, as smoothing is done by averaging movement from the past and future, up to 5s on both sides.

The API thing might be a good idea, shoot an email at steady@stupeflix.com!


With iOS 8, they could just make an extension that allows other apps to use it.
