+/*! 
+ * @class Bridge
+ * @brief Type conversion class for converting OpenCV and native C++ types
+ *
+ * Bridge provides an interface for converting between OpenCV/C++ types
+ * to Matlab's mxArray format.
+ *
+ * Each type conversion requires three operators:
+ *    // conversion from ObjectType --> Bridge
+ *    Bridge& operator=(const ObjectType&);
+ *    // implicit conversion from Bridge --> ObjectType
+ *    operator ObjectType();
+ *    // explicit conversion from Bridge --> ObjectType
+ *    ObjectType toObjectType
+ *
+ * The bridging class provides common conversions between OpenCV types,
+ * std and stl types to Matlab's mxArray format. By inheriting Bridge, 
+ * you can add your own custom type conversions.
+ *
+ * Bridge attempts to make as few assumptions as possible, however in 
+ * some cases where 1-to-1 mappings don't exist, some assumptions are necessary.
+ * In particular:
+ *  - conversion from of a 2-channel Mat to an mxArray will result in a complex
+ *    output
+ *  - conversion from multi-channel interleaved Mats will result in
+ *    multichannel planar mxArrays
+ *
