development for Android / iOS - preliminaries

Seeing that the mobile devices were quite competitive with the desktop's processing power in a previous post, thought about working on porting various tools like OCVWarp to Android and iOS if feasible.

OpenCV Android - had earlier cloned / forked NDK samples.

OpenCV for iOS - samples are at https://github.com/opencv/opencv_for_ios_book_samples

https://docs.opencv.org/4.11.0/d3/dc9/tutorial_table_of_content_ios.html

The binaries are available here 

https://sourceforge.net/projects/opencvlibrary/files/opencv-ios/

only up to OpenCV v3.4.3, but iOS framework seems to be available at

https://sourceforge.net/projects/opencvlibrary/
