SETUP OPENCV 2.4.9.

1 Install tool for compile OpenCV

2 Setup Environment variables for OpenCV

3 Configure in Visual Studio and simple example

4 Result

I Install tools for compile OpenCV

1 Visual Studio

Download and install Visual Studio 2013 or Visual Studio 2015 (C/C++) It’s free and choosing all default options will work fine

2 OpenCV 3.1.0

Goto http://opencv.org/ and download the OpenCV latest version 2.4.9 for Windows Then set "Extract to:" to your "C:\" directory

II Setup Environment variables for OpenCV]

Goto “My Computer”, click ringt mouse select “Properties”

Then chose “Advanced system setting”

Then we chose

And edit “Path” field

Add “C:\opencv\build\x64\vc12\bin” Because we are using Visual Studio 2013 (vc12)

Click “OK” to save

Pull up a Command Prompt and verify the bin directory is now in PATH, then reboot

III Configure in Visual Studio and simple example.

Start Visual Studio, choose File -> New -> Project

Choose Visual C++, Empty Project, name as you prefer, ex “OpenCV_Test1”, set preferred location, uncheck "Create directory for solution" and "Add to source control", choose OK

Then right click in Solution Explorer, choose Add -> New Item

Choose "C++ File", name the C++ file as preferred, ex "Main.cpp", choose "Add"

In the Visual Studio toolbar, verify that "Solution Configurations" is set to "Debug", then change "Solution Platforms" to "x64" (make sure not to skip this step, or 32-bit vs

64-bit errors will be encountered)

Chose “OpenCV_Test1”, click “Properties”

Chose “Configuration Manager”

Click “Win 32” in “Platofrom”

Chose “x64”, then click OK

 In “VC++ Directories”,

- in “Include Directories ” field add “C:\opencv\build\include” and

- in field “Library Directories” add “C:\opencv\build\x64\vc12\lib”

 In “C/C++” field, at “Additional Include Directories” field Add “C:\opencv\build\include”

 In “Linker” field.

At “Additional Include Directories” field, add “C:\opencv\build\x64\vc12\lib”

At “Input” field

Add “

opencv_photo249d.lib; opencv_stitching249d.lib; opencv_superres249d.lib; opencv_ts249d.lib;

opencv_videostab249d.lib;”

in “Additional Dependencies” field

“opencv_calib3d249.lib;

opencv_contrib249.lib;

opencv_core249.lib;

opencv_features2d249.lib;

opencv_flann249.lib;

opencv_highgui249.lib;

opencv_imgproc249.lib;

opencv_legacy249.lib;

opencv_ml249.lib;

opencv_nonfree249.lib;

opencv_objdetect249.lib;

opencv_ocl249.lib;

opencv_photo249.lib;

opencv_stitching249.lib;

opencv_superres249.lib;

opencv_ts249.lib;

opencv_video249.lib;

opencv_videostab249.lib;”

(when Release mode, we remove symbol “d” in the version Ex: opencv_calib3d249.lib)

So, we configured environment for Visual Studio.

IV Result

We are test with project “Trace the red” use Camera
