Would you be open to sharing the C++ version?

Its a bit messy, and the algorithm is a bit different, but you can change it easily. Also, im getting resource initialized error after a while. It might be an array error.

Also interested in running this on RoboRio and in C++. Anyone have any luck compiling a C++ WPIlib robot program with some opencv in it? If so, I'd love to hear how you did it.

Thanks for sharing that! How did you get the opencv libraries onto the roborio? I've been having some trouble with that

wow! Amazing!
I just wish that we had something like that in labview :/

It works with labview! all you have to do is output to a network table, and from there you can get the values in labview.

Nicely done.

So how would you use this to get the values of the contours?

Lets say I want my robot to "auto" shoot when the contours are a specific dimension. Anyway I can do that with this ?

Thanks.

Thanks.

I will add in the network table features today since i finally got it to work (longer then expected)

essentially you need to find the amount that your shooter can be off (tolerance) while still "scoring", for instance it can make it anywhere from 6-8 feet from the goal. Then you need to make sure your robot keeps driving until it is somewhere between that tolerance and then it can start its fire sequence. I would recommend looking into a pid drive system for that, its a closed loop drive that would work nicely with this.

We followed 2168's vision example and there precompiled version worked fine for us. Any questions, just ask.

You might want to look at the Getting Started Window, Tutorials tab, say #8.

If you want more detailed build steps than the 2168 thing from last year, here's a 2016 project with a working (building, at least) opencv on C++ as well as instructions on how to set it up if you want to build it yourself (easiest on Ubuntu or similar) in the BuildOpenCV.txt file.

Nevermind, I have no idea what I'm doing.

why are you trying to run it on a jetson or something else...

[virtuald]

FYI, anyone looking for a precompiled version of opencv 3.1 for the roboRIO, the robotpy project has had one available since before build season. Works with C++, Java, and Python 2/3 -- very easy to install the shared libraries on the roboRIO through our opkg repo.

you can do this on $35 Raspberry pi and save critical RoboRio resources
