In this chapter, we sent our computer vision applications to the server-side world. We started covering the basics of a simple servlet-based web application configuration using Maven, which provided us with a general application structure. We then added OpenCV dependencies to our pom.xml configuration file as used in a standard OpenCV desktop application. We then checked other runtime configurations as we deployed our web server using Maven.

With every webapp configuration aspect solved, we moved on to the development of our mixed reality application that explored the details of image uploading, converting it to an OpenCV Mat object and then writing a response to our clients with a processed image.

It seems that all aspects of creating basic computer vision applications have been covered now. We dealt with setting up OpenCV for Java and then learned how to work with matrices. We then touched on the basics of creating Java Swing desktop applications and worked with image-processing...
