What's inside libuvc

  1. Install and build libuvc

    master

    To build libuvc from source, ensure you have libusb and CMake installed on your system. Follow these steps to clone, configure, and install the library:

    1. Clone the repository.
    2. Create and enter a build directory.
    3. Run cmake .. to generate build files.
    4. Compile and install using make and sudo make install.
    git clone https://github.com/libuvc/libuvc
cd libuvc
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make && sudo make install

  2. Build libuvc examples and tests

    master

    By default, libuvc does not compile the example or test programs. To enable them, pass the BUILD_EXAMPLE and BUILD_TEST flags to CMake during the configuration step.

    Note: Building the uvc_test program requires OpenCV to be installed on your system for image display functionality.

    cmake .. -DBUILD_TEST=ON -DBUILD_EXAMPLE=ON
