Building the Vision GUI

In order to build the Vision GUI, you need to install qtcreator, the opencv libraries, and the Basler pylon software.

To install Qt Creator, run the following command though the terminal:

sudo apt-get install qtcreator

To install the OpenCV libraries, follow the steps under the "Install OpenCV from Source" paragraph in the following link: <a href="https://linuxize.com/post/how-to-install-opencv-on-ubuntu-18-04/">How to install OpenCV on Ubuntu 18.04</a>. At the time of programming Vision GUI 2019, opencv3.4.8 was installed.

To install the Basler pylon software, download it from the <a href="https://www.baslerweb.com/en/sales-support/downloads/software-downloads/">Basler Software Downloads site</a>. The pylon version currently used is <a href="https://www.baslerweb.com/en/sales-support/downloads/software-downloads/pylon-5-2-0-linux-x86-32-bit/">Version5.2.0</a>.

To build the GUI press ctrl+B. If it fails to build, make sure the opencv and pylon libraries LIBS += and their respective paths INCLUDEPATH += are specified in the Qtvision.pro file. If they are specified, install missing libraries using apt-get>.
