Requirements-

1. OpenCVmod_32bit
2. Visual Studio 2010 / 2012
3. Windows 7 / 8

(Thanks to Hongbo Miao for this tutorial to install OpenCV 2.4.4 for Visual Studio 2012.)

Follow the steps carefully. Don't miss a single step and you are ON.

---

Step-1

Extract the zip file and store it in "C" drive. Now it should look like "C:/OpenCV/install/" ( Inside install folder bin, include and lib folder should be there) (This tutorial follow this path "C:/OpenCV/install/".)

Open Windows Explorer. Click on Computer and then System properties.

Choose Advanced system settings.

Click Environment Variables...

Add only this to Environment Variables -> System variables -> Path

C:\OpenCV\install\bin

---

Step-2

Create a new project without any source file.

For Debug:

                             and its over...

Now restart the system and run the below code for testing.

Sample code:

//Reading an image

#include "opencv2\core\core.hpp"
#include "opencv2\highgui\highgui.hpp"
#include "cv.h"
#include "highgui.h"

using namespace std;

using namespace cv;

void main()

{

Mat image = imread("00.jpg"); //Give the full path to the image file

namedWindow("mywin");

imshow("mywin", image);

waitKey(0);

}

Sample code:

//Playing Video

#include "cv.h" 

#include "opencv2\core\core.hpp"
#include "opencv2\highgui\highgui.hpp"

#include "highgui.h" 

using namespace cv;

int main() 

{ 

// Open the video file

VideoCapture capture("asmall.avi"); //Give the full path for the video file

// check if video successfully opened

if (!capture.isOpened())

return 1;

// Get the frame rate

bool stop(false);

Mat frame; // current video frame

namedWindow("Extracted Frame");

// Delay between each frame in ms

// corresponds to video frame rate

// for all frames in video

while (!stop) {

// read next frame if any 

if (!capture.read(frame))

break;

imshow("Extracted Frame",frame);

// introduce a delay in mili-second

waitKey(50);

}

// Close the video file.

// Not required since called by destructor

capture.release();

return 0; 

}

Requirements-
1. OpenCV
2. Cmake 
3. Visual Studio 2010 / 2012
4. Windows 7 / 8

Thanks to Hongbo Miao for this tutorial to install OpenCV 2.4.4 for Visual Studio 2012.

Important Note- After downloading and extracting OpenCV, delete the folder named "x86" inside "build" folder. Then go ahead.

---

Step-1

Extract OpenCV-2.4.7 to a folder let "C:/OpenCV". This OpenCV folder should contain many folders like build, include etc.

Install CMake. Open CMake and use settings below. Then click Configure.

Choose Visual Studio 11 Win64 for 64bit OS otherwise choose Visual Studio 11 / 10. Click Finish.

After a while, click Configure again. Wait a moment and then click Generate.

(For Windows 8 user) - Now copy that folder to your windows 8 machine. Now do the following steps.

Close CMake and go to C:\MyOpenCV, open OpenCV.sln.

Choose Debug.

Right click INSTALL. And choose Build.

After build successful , go back and choose Release. Similarly, right click INSTALL. And choose Build.

After build finish, close Visual Studio 2012.

Copy C:\MyOpenCV\install folder to C:\OpenCV. (This install folder contains your whole OpenCV, so there is no need of keeping folders other than install folder.)

So now you have a C:\OpenCV\install folder. You can delete C:\MyOpenCV whole folder if you want.

---

Step-2

Open Windows Explorer. Click on Computer and then System properties.

Choose Advanced system settings.

Click Environment Variables...

Add only this to Environment Variables -> System variables -> Path

C:\OpenCV\install\bin

---

Step-3

Create your own project in Visual Studio 2012.

Build menu -> Configuration Manager

Change the Active solution platform. Click on Win32, Select New.... Use the settings below and click OK.

---

Step-4

For Release:

Create a new empty C++ project.

View -> Property Manager or right click on project name inside solution Explorer and choose property.

Double click Release | x64

Now restart the system and run the below code for testing.

Please share some experience on why to use OPEN CV/ MATLAB /C / C++ !!!

Sample code:

//Reading an image

#include "opencv2\core\core.hpp"
#include "opencv2\highgui\highgui.hpp"
#include "cv.h"
#include "highgui.h"

using namespace std;

using namespace cv;

void main()

{

Mat image = imread("00.jpg"); //Give the full path to the image file

namedWindow("mywin");

imshow("mywin", image);

waitKey(0);

}

Sample code:

//Playing Video

#include "cv.h" 

#include "opencv2\core\core.hpp"
#include "opencv2\highgui\highgui.hpp"

#include "highgui.h" 

using namespace cv;

int main() 

{ 

// Open the video file

VideoCapture capture("asmall.avi"); //Give the full path for the video file

// check if video successfully opened

if (!capture.isOpened())

return 1;

// Get the frame rate

bool stop(false);
