Aviary vs OpenCV: What are the differences?

Aviary: The world's best photo editing SDK. Aviary's beautiful photo editor is powerful, customizable, and can be plugged into your mobile apps and website in minutes. The best photo editing for your app or website Our 3500+ partners chose Aviary because our editor is powerful, customizable, and integration takes just minutes. Aviary comes preloaded with a ton of intuitive features that your users will love; OpenCV: Open Source Computer Vision Library. OpenCV was designed for computational efficiency and with a strong focus on real-time applications. Written in optimized C/C++, the library can take advantage of multi-core processing. Enabled with OpenCL, it can take advantage of the hardware acceleration of the underlying heterogeneous compute platform.

Aviary and OpenCV belong to "Image Processing and Management" category of the tech stack.

Some of the features offered by Aviary are:

  • Enhance
  • Effects
  • Frames

On the other hand, OpenCV provides the following key features:

  • C++, C, Python and Java interfaces and supports Windows, Linux, Mac OS, iOS and Android
  • More than 47 thousand people of user community and estimated number of downloads exceeding 7 million
  • Usage ranges from interactive art, to mines inspection, stitching maps on the web or through advanced robotics

OpenCV is an open source tool with 36.3K GitHub stars and 26.6K GitHub forks. Here's a link to OpenCV's open source repository on GitHub.

I want to make a video template where we can change images and make a new video with template animation text and song but the images are our and the image which is chosen from a user can convert into different shapes just like cartoon or childhood or old age and at the last show both images in the template video. How I can do it in Android Studio?

Review

Since I believe Android Studio now supports Python plugins &/or invoking Python scripts I personally would use MoviePy (https://zulko.github.io/moviepy/) as a wrapper around FFMPEG &

ImageMagick (https://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php) - this combination will allow you to have a script that takes in an image or video, resizes it to a specified size, adds the text, (either scrolling it in or fading in/out or even with some special effects), then saves the output video. There are example scripts on the MoviePy site on how to do these. While you could do it yourself with FFMPEG & ImageMagick plus command line parameters I personally find using MoviePy much more clear & maintainable.

If you want the end user to be able to supply the image/video then you will need to set up a server somewhere that can take in the POSTed image and return the processed results.
