Building the Vision GUI

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

  1. To install Qt Creator, run the following command through the terminal: sudo apt-get install qtcreator .
  2. To install the OpenCV libraries, follow the steps described in the "Install OpenCV from Source" paragraph from How to install OpenCV on Ubuntu 18.04. At the time of programming Vision GUI 2019, opencv3.4.8 was installed.
  3. To install the Basler pylon software, download it from the Basler Software Downloads site. The pylon version currently used is Version5.2.0. Follow the instructions in the INSTALL file that comes with the downloaded compressed tar file.
  4. 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.
