The few professional ones feeling IMAQ to be to expensive will probably go with IVIsion and then you are left with the ones doing it as a hobby or being in education and that usually turns out to be not enough to carry a project of this size and complexity (Call Library Nodes, C programming) for a longer time. Most professional users will prefer to use IMAQ because it offers support, and a known communication partner to talk too. This leaves even fewer people interested to spend an enormous amount of time for such a project. It does exactly what you are more or less trying to reinvent (though it isn't really free for professional use). Last time I looked at that it seemed to me almost unavoidable to develop yet another intermediate shared library which takes on the task of translating stuff between the OpenCV environment and LabVIEW.Īnd then you shouldn't forget that there is already IVision from. While directly calling into the OpenCV shared libraries will probably allow you to have something working fairly fast it will proof in the long run to be disadvantagous and quite a bit of a hasslle to maintain. As such it will be a long time before there is something which can be used for serious applications and it always will require tinkering of some sorts to get it working on a particular system. Well, I think it could be an interesting project, but I also think it is a project about the size of Comedi or similar.
