Documentation
The vision_opencv stack provides packaging of the popular OpenCV library for ROS. For information about the OpenCV library, please see the OpenCV main page at http://opencv.willowgarage.com/wiki/ links to complete documentation for OpenCV, as well as other OpenCV resources.
For OpenCV vision_opencv provides several packages:
opencv2: OpenCV 2.3 library (Electric/Fuerte) or 2.2 library (Diamondback).
cv_bridge: Bridge between ROS messages and OpenCV.
image_geometry: Collection of methods for dealing with image and pixel geometry
In order to use ROS with OpenCV, please see the cv_bridge package.
As of electric, OpenCV is a system dependency. Please follow the instructions on the opencv2 page.
