Installation & Dependencies
Version: 14.04 LTS
EBT has been developed using Ubuntu’s latest Long Term Support (LTS) release 14.04, for best support with most common dependencies. Although installation is possible for other Linux distributions and Mac OS X, this will require further source builds for additional dependency and is not recommended.
###Packages
If you don’t have these packages already then simply install them from Ubuntu's repository. The following packages are used when building the rest of the dependencies from source
- cmake
sudo apt-get install cmake- boost
sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev- OpenGL >= 1.10
sudo apt-get install libglew-dev- GLEW >= 1.10
sudo apt-get install libglew-dev- GLUT >=2.8.1
sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev- LAPACK >= 3.5
sudo apt-get install liblapack3- Compiling Tools
sudo apt-get install build-essential libxmu-dev libxi-dev checkinstall- OpenCV Deps
sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev pkg-config- [git] (http://git-scm.com)
sudo apt-get install git
Version: 2.4.9, or see below
OpenCV is available on github. Detailed installation instructions are available at here. Note that you will need to enable the BUILD_opencv_nonfree, which has some nonfree features such as SURF used for this project.
git clone https://github.com/Itseez/opencv.gitcd opencv
Fetch the stable 2.4.9 branch
git fetchgit checkout 2.4.9git checkout -b 2.4.9mkdir buildcd build
Modify to reflect nonfree build:
cmake -BUILD_opencv_nonfree="True" ..make -j4sudo make install
Now you are ready build the rest of EBT. This uses the same build procedure as Opencv, making sure to build against the same OpenCV library you built before.
git clone https://github.com/CognitiveRobotics/object_tracking_2D.gitcd object_tracking_2Dmkdir buildcd buildcmake ..make -j4
You should now be ready to run! If you wish, you can now proceed to one of the tutorials to learn more about using and working with EBT.
