[QUOTE="disarray, post: 46398"] I wish I could say the answer is a definitive "yes", but it isn't that simple, unfortunately. I've been wrestling with OpenCV under OS X for several weeks now. The good news is: - I was able to compile the last version (0.9.5) using these instructions: tp://wwwbruegge.in.tum.de/view/Lehrstuhl/CompileOpenCV (outdated link removed) - once compiled, all the unit tests worked The bad news: - as you'll note in the instructions, the one part that won't built at all is cvcam--for interfacing with cameras - a new version of OpenCV was just released (0.9.6), but I haven't had any luck building it, even though it has fewer dependencies than the previous one There's probably a straightforward way to fix the new version, too, but I haven't found it yet. cvcam is a more fundamental issue; someone will need to write OS X-specific code to make it work, and I haven't seen any interest on the OpenCV mailing list in a port. If you have any other questions, ask away. Given my limited success with OpenCV, I can't guarantee an answer, but I'll try. cheers, --ian [/QUOTE]
