Building With OpenCV Tutorials for your speci c IDE are available online. Warning: I’ve only ever used OpenCV’s C and C interfaces. Nate Kent nkent@iastate.edu OpenCV Overview January 28, 2016 14 / 33. Starting Out in OpenCV.OpenCV uses the cv namespace.cv::Mat object replaces the original C standard IplImage and CvMat classes.All original functions and classes of the C standard OpenCV components in the Bradski book are still available and current. However you will need to read that book for it.namedWindow is used for viewing. %PDF-1.5 OpenCV supports a wide variety of programming languages like Python, C, Java, etc. It mainly focuses on image processing, video capture and analysis including features like face detection and object detection.

In this tutorial we take a look at how to use the OpenCV files we built in the previous video to create an OpenCV C project in Visual Studio.Blog Post: htt. How-to OpenCV 3 Tutorial July 10, 2017 By 22 Comments In this tutorial, we will compare the performance of the forEach method of the Mat class to other ways of accessing and transforming pixel values in OpenCV.

Wrapping OpenCV

Function Mapping - Emgu.CV.CvInvoke

The CvInvoke class provides a way to directly invoke OpenCV function within .NET languages. Each method in this class corresponds to a function in OpenCV of the same name. For example, a call to

is equivalent to the following function call in C

Both of which create a 400x300 of 8-bit unsigned grayscale image.

Structure Mapping - Emgu.CV.Structure.Mxxx

This type of structure is a direct mapping to OpenCV structures.

Emgu CV Structure	OpenCV structure
Emgu.CV.Structure.MIplImage	IplImage
Emgu.CV.Structure.MCvMat	CvMat
..	..
Emgu.CV.Structure.Mxxxx	xxxx

The prefix M here stands for Managed structure.

Emgu CV also borrows some existing structures in .Net to represent structures in OpenCV:

.Net Structure	OpenCV structure
System.Drawing.Point	CvPoint
System.Drawing.PointF	CvPoint2D32f
System.Drawing.Size	CvSize
System.Drawing.Rectangle	CvRect

Enumeration Mapping - Emgu.CV.CvEnum

The CvEnum namespace provides direct mapping to OpenCV enumerations. For example, CvEnum.IPL_DEPTH.IPL_DEPTH_8U has the same value as IPL_DEPTH_8U in OpenCV; both of which equals 8.

Error Handling

Emgu CV register a custom error handler in OpenCV. When error is encountered from OpenCV, a CvException will be thrown.

Intellisense in Visual Studio

If you are using Visual Studio as your development tools, you will have intellisense support when developing Emgu CV applications. For example, if you want to create an image directly using cvCreateImage function, which is wrapped by the CvInvoke Class, just type CvInvoke.

and a list of functions belonging to CvInvoke class is displayed along with a description for each of the functions. Since you are creating an image, select the cvCreateImage function

The list of parameters for this function will be displayed as well as a description for each of the parameters.

Upgrading from Emgu CV 2.x to 3.x

Function Mapping - Emgu.CV.CvInvoke

In Emgu CV v2.x, CvInvoke function calls use the C interface. In v3.x, we have migrate away from the opencv c interface to opencv C++ interface, so does the function names.

For example, in v2.x, the function has been replaced by

The best way to find out the new function names if you are migrating from version 2.x is through the Open CV documentation:

You can search for the C function name and the search result should have the C++ function name right next to the C interface.

IInputArray, IOutputArray

IInputArray has been introduced in version 3.0. You can find that many of our new interfaces accepts IInputArray and IOutputArray. They can be any one of the following:

• A CvArray, which is the base class of Matrix and Image<,>
• A Mat, which is the Open CV equivalent of cv::Mat
• A UMat, which is the Open CV equivalent of cv::UMat
• A ScalarArray, which can be used to convert a scalar to an IInputArray
• VectorOf{XXX}, this is the interface for the C++ standard vector

T-API

T-API is THE MOST AWESOME FUTURE in 3.0 release !!!

Let me explain why:

For a simple image operation, suppose we have an image in memory and we wants to perform an invert operation. In Emgu CV 2.x, we can write the code as follows:

In Emgu CV 3.x, we can still use the Image<Gray, Byte> class to perform the same operation, with a slight change in the CvInvoke function name

To realize the true potential with T-API, let's try to use UMat to perform the same operation

It all seems to be not much different from the code that use the Image<,> class in 3.0. However, the above code can automatically use OpenCL engine to perform the operation if a suitable OpenCL device is found. That means it will run many times faster on a system with a discrete GPU (Nvidia, AMD, Intel Iris Pro etc). On systems that do not have a OpenCL devices, the code will be run on CPU and have the same performance as if we are passing the Image<,> or Mat objects to the CvInvoke function.

In short, T-API enable developer to automatically use the OpenCL devices (GPU) for computing and automatically fall back to CPU in the absent of OpenCL devices. You can also turn the OpenCL engine off by simply setting

In which case all the code will be run on CPU instead.

/proteus-84-download.html. The T-API is the motivation for us to rewrite all our code using the OpenCV C++ interface to take advantage of this future. We believe it is well worth the effort once we see the results.
