text - adding hyperlink to video in opencv

Question

I know, it is possible to add text in video and overlay images in OpenCV. Can we make hyperlink to the text and overplayed images, when a user click, we redirect him/her to a website.

Answer 1

Here I assume that you try to use internal GUI features of OpenCV's HighGUI module.

Here you can find a number of mouse event callbacks for the opencv-highgui windows, which can be used to determine a position of the click and do what's necessary (start a browser, etc). There's no simplified hyperlink functionality in OpenCV's highgui windows.
