Building Computer Vision Projects with OpenCV 4 and C++

Equipment setup to develop code for an embedded device

Let's begin by keeping it as simple as possible, by using a USB keyboard and mouse and an HDMI monitor just like our desktop system, compiling the code natively on the device, and running our code on the device. Our first step will be to copy the code onto the device, install the build tools, and compile OpenCV and our source code on the embedded system.

Many embedded devices such as Raspberry Pi have an HDMI port and at least one USB port. Therefore, the easiest way to start using an embedded device is to plug in an HDMI monitor and USB keyboard and mouse for the device, to configure settings and see the output, while doing the code development and testing using your desktop machine. ...
