dlib-android

Build Status

Purpose

  • Port dlib to Andriod platform

  • You can build it to dynamic or static library for Android. You can also build dlib's sample to Android executable file.

  • You can refer to dlib-android-app which demonstrates dlib-android features

Grab the source

$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/tzutalin/dlib-android.git
$ cd dlib-android
$ ./envsetup

Prerequisites

  • Download Android-NDK from Android website.

    After downloading, go to the directory to which you downloaded the package to extract it

    Export ANDROID_NDK_HOME in ~/.bashrc $ vim ~/.bashrc

    export ANDROID_NDK_HOME=[NDK_PATH]/android-ndk-[version]

    export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_NDK_HOME

  • Install Android Debug Bride (ADB). You can download it via Android SDK Manager or $ sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb

  • Prepare an Android device for test

Build JNI code and shared library for Android application

  • You can change the compiler architecture in dlib-android/jni/Application.mk

  • The way to build the shared library for Android application

    $ cd [dlib-android]
    $ python build.py

Alternative way to build native code and copy to the Android Studio's project manually:

    $ cd [dlib-android]
    $ ndk-build -j 2
    $ cp -r libs/* androidstudio-examples/dlib-android-app/dlib/src/main/jniLibs

Run Android application

  • Open Android Studio's projects in androidstudio-examples/dlib-android-app to run face detection, face landmark, and so on
