Re: Installing OpenCV

Darn it...the edit button is broken

I have gotten OpenCV installed. I just used "apt-get install libopencv-dev". Hopefully that works.

I have one problem now:
I do not trust the Windows version of OpenCV. I had a working install, which got corrupted when I ran sample code! My team wants to stick with Windows, because that is the OS that everyone is familiar with and the Driver Station resides on. How should I use OpenCV? We are using Java, though I am sure that the language shouldn't make any difference. Should I run VIrtualBox on the DS, or should I get another DS laptop (We have a couple) to boot Ubuntu (Or maybe Debian, to make the install lighter), to run OpenCV? That laptop can also become the network robot coprocessor!
