Easy Opencv 3.1, opencv 2.4.13 instalation Visual Studio 2015 NUGET

Opencv Simple instalation.

Easy Opencv instalation for Visual Studio 2015 C++ project by NUGET packages. Your opencv is ready to use under 2 minutes after you find the package console.

From Opencv 3.0 Cmake to Opencv 3.1 prebuild Libs

I wrote about opencv instalation since the release of version 3 and Visual Studio 2015.. In early build of opencv 3.0 there is no precompiled library for VS2015 and I wrote about instalation using CMAKE here . This is still usefull when you need non standard capabilities. You can manage build process and target specific functions and properties. Opencv version 3.1 was shipped with prebuild libs for Visual studio 2015 and everithing is much more simple.. Instation and basic setup is discussed in tutorial here .

Install Opencv, Visual studio 2015 with NUGET

The most simple way without setting the global enviromental variables and staff like location of headers and libs is use the NUGET packages..

You can install in nuget package console.. DONT be afraid of CONSOLE. PLEASE.

1.Open Nuget console

2. Create empty Visual C++ project

3. Add a source File and write some code..

4. Add NUGET package

5. Compile and have a fun.. RLY simple in less than 4 minutes..

Again please dont be afraid of console again.. This is much more simple than anaything..

Opencv Nuget Console options

After the PM> you can write commands for Nuger console.. And install Opencv is rly simple. For default configuration like in prebuild libs just use..

Opencv Default Build 3.1.0

PM> Install-Package opencvdefault

Enabled advanced CPU instructions. With OpenMP. No TBB/IPP. vc12/vc14, x64/x86 available.

PM> Install-Package opencv3.1

AND DONE !!

Vlada, thank you for the work to show this process. I am researching it now. I had been trying to build a complete opencv 3.1.0 library and failed numerous times. I cannot find a complete listing of the necessary dependencies. Even the official opencv installation documentation is incomplete (library version, etc...). Does this NuGet process work the for the complete opencv library: QT, CUDA, CONTRIB, NON-FREE, etc? Unfortunately I almost need the complete library to support my experiments.

As I side note, can you write up a thread that outlines the exact list of dependencies needed to build a fully functional opencv 3.1.0 library for WIN10-x64? I cannot find it anywhere in the webs. I understand the basic concepts like use of cmake, and building, but if I cant get the right library versions to support, then it makes little difference.

Thanks in advance, and I look forward to your future work.

I am also having trouble.
Some functions work, but VideoCapture does not.
Searching the included resource folder I do not see a ffmpg dll.
Do I need to add some features manually?

Thanks for this manual.
When I add the OpenCV by Nuget package, my Intellisense of visual studio will be deactivated. Have you experienced such this problem?

Opencv 3.1 Tutorial Optical flow (calcOpticalFlowFarneback)

Farneback Optical flow Opencv simple C++ tutorial and code to achieve optical flow and farneback optical flow of moving an object in opencv video. Lets check the video example and the achieved result on my blog. Working and well describe code is included.

Optical Flow Farneback parameters remarksYou need 2 images at least to calculate optical flow, the previous image (prevgray) and current image (img). !! The previous image must be initialized first !! Both images have to be gray scale.
Result is computer in flowUmat which has same size as inputs but format is CV_32FC2

0.4- image pyramid or simple image scale
1 is number of pyramid layers. 1 mean that flow is calculated only from previous image. 12 is win size.. Flow is computed over the window larger value is more robust to the noise. 2 mean number of iteration of algorithm 8 is polynomial degree expansion recommended value are 5 - 7 1.2 standard deviation used to smooth used derivatives recommended values from 1.1 - 1,5

Opencv build and install Visual Studio 2017 Contrib library

Easy install and build of Opencv 3+ tested on 3.2 version with contributor library and additional features described step by step, picture by picture. After this tutorial you can modify setting of CMAKE project according to HW possibilities and available libraries to build your own Opencv library. Most of the time, Prebuild libs with already generated DLL, LIBS are used to start project and coding. In case, that new visual studio 2017 is available there is no prebuild libraries for VS141, Thich is from my point of view confusing naming of Libraries compatible with Visual Studio 2017. Opencv VS 2017 install options Alternatives to this tutorial. You can skip this. There is possibility use some compatibility pack downloaded to VS140 and use same prebuild library as in case of Visual Studio 2015 this is described hereThe second way is to try use some prebuild NUGET package. I am using nugets a lot. Simple installation under one line of code inside nuget packages console. here

Head and people detection in opencv

LBP cascade for detect head and people in opencv LBP cascade free to download to use in opencv to detect people and heads. Code example and cascade description. All you need to write your own people head detector from the youtube video.
Cascade is trained on my own people and head datasets. There are no perfect but in some cases are better then default opencv cascades. They are just different.. For example you can count that the head detector have much more false detection than the people detector.. The shape and feature space is much more common and close to others shapes than the whole people detector.

Issues with opencv detectMultiScale head and people detector Please let me know if cascades worked as expected.. In code example there is ground threshold settings and reccomentation.

Opencv C++ Tutorial Mat resize

Opencv Mat Resize Resize the Mat or Image in the Opencv C++ tutorial. It is obviously simple task and important to learn. This tutorial is visualized step by step and well-described each of them. The main trick is in that simple code.

Mat Input;
Mat Resized;
int ColumnOfNewImage = 60;
int RowsOfNewImage = 60;
resize(Input, Resized, Size(ColumnOfNewImage,RowsOfNewImage));

This code just takes an Input image and resized save to output Mat. How big is the resized image is based on the Size? Size just contains two parameters. Simple numbers of how the result should be big. The simple number of columns (width) and rows (height). That is basically it. Enjoy

Boring same face again and again.

Load Image, resize and save Opencv C++ #include <Windows.h> #include "opencv2\highgui.hpp" #include "opencv2\imgproc.hpp" #include "opencv2\video\background_segm.hpp" #include "opencv2\video\tracking.hpp"
