The xfOpenCV library is a set of 50+ kernels, optimized for Xilinx FPGAs and SoCs, based on the OpenCV computer vision library. The kernels in the xfOpenCV library are optimized and supported in the Xilinx SDx Tool Suite.
The library is organized into the following folders -
| Folder Name | Contents |
|---|---|
| examples | Examples that evaluate the xfOpenCV kernels, and demonstrate the kernels' use model |
| include | The relevant headers necessary to use the xfOpenCV kernels |
The organization of contents in each folder is described in the readmes of the respective folders. For more information on the xfOpenCV libraries and their use models, please refer to the Xilinx OpenCV User Guide.
To get a local copy of the SDAccel example repository, clone this repository to the local system with the following command:
git clone https://github.com/Xilinx/xfopencv xfopencv
Where 'xfopencv' is the name of the directory where the repository will be stored on the local system.This command needs to be executed only once to retrieve the latest version of the xfOpenCV library. The only required software is a local installation of git.
The xfOpenCV library is designed to work with Zynq and Zynq Ultrascale+ FPGAs. The library has been verified on zcu102 board. SDSoC 2017.1 Development Environment is required to work with the library. zcu102 reVISION platform is required to run the library on zcu102 board. Please download it from here: reVISION Platform

| Date | Readme Version | Release Notes |
|---|---|---|
| June2017 | 1.0 | Initial Xilinx release -Windows OS support is in Beta. |
- Currently, examples only build in Linux OS. Windows OS support is coming soon. For Windows examples, refer to the xfOpenCV examples in the reVision platform, available at here: reVISION Platform
- Hardware kernels using 128-bit streaming interfaces will experience twice the expected latency. This will be resolved in a coming update.
