ASSURF Bundle Manager

This aim of the application is to help users quickly create packages for later use with ASSURF.
It can produce compressed binary file or BASE64 encoded string that is easily can be parsed in your code.

Features

• Video and Image data input
• Realtime match test with current list of references
• Realtime reference elements and its points editing
• Export/Import data as binary file or BASE64 string

Parsing output files

Output data is binary. After loading file and getting access to its ByteArray data you have to parse it:

function parseData(data:ByteArray):void
{
    // binary file is compressed
    data.uncompress();

    // see if file also contains BitmapData bytes
    var includeImages:Boolean = data.readBoolean();

    // number of included references
    var referenceCount:int = data.readInt();

    var pointsCount:int = 0;

    for( var i:int = 0; i < referenceCount; ++i )
    {
	var pointsInReference = data.readInt();

        if(includeImages)
        {
            // get included BitmapData width and height
            var bitmap:BitmapData = new BitmapData(data.readInt(), data.readInt(), false, 0x00);
            // next bytes are bitmap ByteArray
            bitmap.setPixels(bitmap.rect, data);
        }
        pointsCount += pointsInReference;
    }

    // after getting all references info
    // we get interest points data that is stored as single chunk
    var pointsData:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
    pointsData.endian = Endian.LITTLE_ENDIAN;

    var pos:int = data.position;
    var pointSize:int = 69 << 3;

    pointsData.writeBytes(data, pos, pointsCount * pointSize);

    // if you want to get information of each point
    // here is how data in single point presented
    for( i = 0; i < pointsCount; ++i )
    {
        pointsData.position = i * pointSize;

        var iPoint:Object = {};

        iPoint.x = pointsData.readDouble();
        iPoint.y = pointsData.readDouble();
        iPoint.scale = 2.5 * pointsData.readDouble();
        iPoint.orientation = pointsData.readDouble();
        iPoint.laplacian = pointsData.readDouble();

        // other 64 << 3 bytes chunk - point descriptors
    }
}

Data can be encoded in BASE64 to process it as string. If you get BASE64 encoded string you just need to decode it first and then the same parse operation.
