Hi Manfred, I tried something similar a while ago when developing a GIL ( generic image library ) extension to make OpenCV functionality available for GIL data types. It's not multi-threaded. If you're interested you can find the code here: http://code.google.com/p/gil-contributions/source/browse/#svn/trunk/gil_2/bo...

Hello List,
Have recently released a series of libraries aimed at facilitating computer-vision tasks - taking out much of the boiler-plate associated with connecting to multiple cameras, and image streams generally.
Work that is largely the product of almost 1.5 years work, using OpenCV as a back-end, but thread-safe, and all in modern C++, and largely header-file only.
For those not particularly interested in computer-vision, there are libraries and miscellaneous utilities that may be of interest, in particular:
- a library wrapper over Boost.Thread (not entirely complete, but covers majority of use-cases); and makes threading less error-prone
- a library for parsing delimited strings (csv, etc)
- a library for parsing command-line options (expresses intent better than Boost.Program_options, betters in some areas, lacks in others)
- a library that with a bit more of effort can be made stand-alone for streaming ("chaining") of algorithms, though binders are common-place, some work herein presents alternative approaches.
[[Documentation]]: is available, but not of Boost quality, however it is sufficient. Depending upon reaction, what I do with these libraries, depends largely upon feedback I get.
[[License]]: largely C++ Boost license, with the exception of a few 3rd-party libs included in the package.
[[Platform]]: developed & tested on Linux; compiles with GCC-4.4.2
[[Where to get it]]: for the time being can be found here (until comms at work can get their act together and put up on their open-website) -
