How to Build and Run the Project

Prerequisites

• CMake (3.11 or higher) - Build system generator
• OpenCV - Computer vision library
• A C++ compiler (e.g., g++) - Code compiler

Build Instructions

1. If downloaded from the lecture (Using linux)

   • Delete build file and start over

2. Create a build directory and navigate into it:

   mkdir build
   cd build

   This creates a separate directory for build artifacts to keep source code clean.

3. Run CMake to configure the project:

   cmake ..

   CMake will:

   • Read the CMakeLists.txt files
   • Check for required dependencies (OpenCV)
   • Detect system architecture (ARM64/x86)
   • Generate build files (Makefiles)
   • Configure compiler settings and flags

4. Build the project:

   make

   Make will:

   • Read the generated Makefiles
   • Compile source files into object files
   • Link object files with libraries (OpenCV)
   • Create the final executable
   • Place the executable in build/src/camera_with_fps

Run Instructions

1. After building, you can run the executable from the build directory: In the build folder, execute

   ./src/camera_with_fps

2. Ensure your camera is connected and properly configured.

3. Follow any on-screen instructions provided by the application.

/opt/homebrew/include/opencv4/opencv2


 g++ camera_with_fps.cpp  -o cv -I/opt/homebrew/include/opencv4/opencv2

Actually the open cv can be found here

-- Found OpenCV: /opt/homebrew/Cellar/opencv/4.11.0 (found version "4.11.0")

Holy shit!!! How to make sure that intellisense is working for open cv.

1. Create a folder called include
2. Copy paste include folder from text
3. rm -rf build && mkdir build && cd build
4. cmake ..
5. make
