README.md
Camera capture demo using OpenCV
Display camera input using the OpenCV library.
Requirements
SPACEBOX
The required libraries for the overall framework must be installed first. Follow the instructions in Installing Requirements in the main README.
OpenCV
Follow the instructions in the main README to build OpenCV for Linux, Android, or both, depending on which platforms the demo is going to be built for.
Build
config
In config.json
, render driver
should be set to opengl
on Linux and opengles2
on Android (in other projects, opengles2 can work on Linux, which is why this is a config value rather than built into the engine).
Linux
In addition to the usual SPACEBOX paths to edit, there are two paths to configure in the Makefile under the Linux build
section. Edit OPENCV_INCPATH
and OPENCV_LINUX_LDPATH
to match locations in the OpenCV project compiled earlier. Then the camera
target should compile.
make camera
After it compiles, run the binary to see the camera input.
./camera
Android
Compiling with NDK 24 may cause an error cannot open crtbegin_so.o
. This thread's suggestion of using the -nostartfiles
linker flag seems to fix it. It may need to be inserted into the main SDL Android.mk
file, which is in the root of the SDL source package installed earlier and referenced in this project's Makefile. Line 83 should be changed to:
LOCAL_LDFLAGS := -Wl,--no-undefined -nostartfiles
In the Makefile, edit OPENCV_ANDROID_SDK
to match the location of the folder built earlier. At this point, the target should be able to build.
make build/android/ooo.shampoo.camera
An APK will be output to build/android/ooo.shampoo.camera/app-debug.apk
which can be loaded onto a device or emulator.
After loading the APK, make sure to give camera permissions to the app. Then, run the app.

The explanation in the main README for the fill_screen Android build applies to this project, with a few additional notes.
- The NDK version is raised to 24, and the minimum SDK version is 21 (this was chosen arbitrarily, but it was failing with version 18).
- There are additional steps added in the Makefile for linking to the pre-built shared libraries for OpenCV and libtbb (which was generated by the OpenCV build process). See this thread for more info on how to link pre-built libraries per-ABI to an Android build using GNU make.
- There is an extra target for including the config JSON and shaders as assets in the Android project.
