+function [features]=binaryFeatures(featureVectors)
+// Object for storing Feature Vectors
+//
+// Calling Sequence
+//   features = binaryFeatures(featureVector);
+//
+// Parameters
+//  featureVector: M-by-N matrix consisting of M features stored in N uint8 containers
+//  features: Binary Feature object for the extracted Features
+//
+// Description
+//  This object provides the ability to pass data between extractFeatures and matchFeatures function
+//
+// Examples
+//    image_1 = imread('sample1.jpg');
+//    points_1 = detectFASTFeatures(image_1);
+//    [ f1 vpts_1 ] = extractFeatures(image_1, points_1);
+//    features1 = binaryFeatures(f1);
+//
+// Authors
+//  Umang Agrawal
+//  Sridhar Reddy
