Computer Vision Implementation Guide

Video Capture SDK .Net, Video Edit SDK .Net, Media Player SDK .Net

Overview of Available Packages

Our SDK provides two NuGet packages that deliver computer-vision capabilities for your applications:

  1. VisioForge.DotNet.Core.CV — Windows-only CV package.
  2. VisioForge.DotNet.Core.CVD — Cross-platform CV package for Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Both packages provide a consistent API for integrating computer-vision features directly into your .NET applications.

Deployment Requirements

Windows-Specific CV Package

Installation Process

The Windows-specific CV package is designed for seamless integration:

  • Simply install the NuGet package through your preferred package manager
  • No additional deployment steps are necessary
  • Ready to use immediately after installation

Cross-Platform CVD Package

Our cross-platform CVD package requires specific configurations based on your operating system:

Windows Environment Setup

When deploying on Windows systems:

  • Install the NuGet package through Visual Studio or the .NET CLI
  • No additional dependencies or configurations are required
  • Works out of the box with standard Windows installations

Ubuntu Linux Configuration

For Ubuntu Linux systems, install the following dependencies:

sudo apt-get install libgdiplus libopenblas-dev libx11-6

These packages provide essential functionalities:

  • libgdiplus: Provides System.Drawing compatibility
  • libopenblas-dev: Optimizes matrix operations for computer vision algorithms
  • libx11-6: Handles X Window System protocol client library

macOS Setup Instructions

For macOS environments, use Homebrew to install the required dependencies:

brew install --cask xquartz
brew install mono-libgdiplus

These components enable:

  • XQuartz: Provides X11 functionality on macOS
  • mono-libgdiplus: Ensures compatibility with System.Drawing
