README.md

A multi-camera tracking algorithm using OpenCV. It depends on OpenCv 2.3.1 (http://opencv.org/), Boost libraries (http://www.boost.org/) and Intel IPP (https://software.intel.com/en-us/intel-ipp).

Usage

In order to run the tracker, use the following command:

Windows

MultiCameraTracker.exe -d config.cfg

(or)

MultiCameraTracker.bat

Linux

./MultiCameraTracker -d config.cfg

(or)

./MultiCameraTracker.sh

Compilation

Windows: Build the Visual studio project.

Linux: Run the make file inside the "obj" folder.

Note: Make sure Intel IPP, OpenCv 2.3.1 and Boost libraries are located in appropriate folders.
