Using CCV

June 27, 2015

Context

I need a realistic computational load to demonstrate the advantages of scaling redundancy in my (still un-named) framework. Computer vision is relevant to most robotics applications, so an open computer vision library was an obvious choice.

The simulator I'm using (Stage) does not support simulated vision, so the computations will be unrelated to the robot's tasks. In the future I may consider moving to another simulator (Gazebo?) so that the vision task can be incorporated into the robot's functioning.

CCV appears to be a good option: it has few dependencies, is open source, and has a permissive license.

Installing and Using CCV

fork on github > git clone https://github.com/liuliu/ccv.git

build / install into lib/, ./configure, make, make install
