Click For Summary
To find the location of a reference image within another image using C++ and the Win32 API, leveraging OpenCV is recommended. OpenCV is a powerful and free library for image processing that provides various methods for object detection. The choice of method depends on factors such as the complexity of the object shape, image quality, and required processing speed. Numerous tutorials are available online that cover different techniques for implementing object detection with OpenCV, which can help in effectively locating the reference image.

Hello. Say that I have an image, and on it a reference image at an unknown location. How would I go about finding the location of the reference image with C++, Win32 API? I have googled this, but I didn't come up with many useful searches. I even posted this question on the MSDN forums, but I was unlucky there as well.

google openCV and "Object Detection"
OpenCV is a great free library for image processing and it comes with source code.

the best solution depends on how complex the object shape is, how good is the image quality and how fast it needs to be - but there are lots of tutorials for the different methods.
