AMD OpenVX modules (amdovx-modules)

The OpenVX framework provides a mechanism to add new vision functions to OpenVX by 3rd party vendors. This project has below OpenVX modules and utilities to complement AMD OpenVX amdovx-core project.

• vx_loomsl: Radeon LOOM stitching library for live 360 degree video applications
• loom_shell: an interpreter to prototype 360 degree video stitching applications using a script
• vx_ext_cv: OpenVX module that implemented a mechanism to access OpenCV functionality as OpenVX kernels

Pre-requisites

• CPU: SSE4.1 or above CPU, 64-bit
• GPU: Radeon W9100 16GB or above (required for vx_loomsl library)
  • DRIVER: AMD Radeon Crimson Edition - use the latest version
  • AMD APP SDK 3.0 download.
• Download amdovx-core project at the same level folder as amdovx-modules build folder

Build using Visual Studio Professional 2013 on 64-bit Windows 10/8.1/7

• Use amdovx-modules/loom.sln to build for x64 platform

Build using CMake on Linux (Ubuntu 15.10 64-bit)

• Install CMake 2.8 or newer download.
• Use CMake to configure and generate Makefile

Build OpenCV extension module (vx_ext_cv)

• Install OpenCV 3.0.
• Set OpenCV_DIR environment variable to OpenCV/build folder
• Use amdovx-modules/vx_ext_cv/amd_ext_cv.sln
