WIN32

These directions are for 64-bit systems First, we install opencv

  1. Download the desired version of OpenCV from here
  2. Double click the downloaded executable to install, and select run at the prompt
  3. Choose a home directory as installation location home directory as shown below, where "username" is the actual username.
  4. Click extract, to install opencv files

    The path to the folder you extracted is from here on refered to as {OPENCV}

Next, we setup environmental variables

    • If it does not, press the New button and set the variable name to Path and the value to the path to your opencv directory ({OPENCV})
