This is the documentation for the iOS OpenCV framework.

Quick Start Tutorial

Follow the steps below to get a simple "Hello World" app running on iOS

• Open Xcode and create a new project from the File > New > Project... menu

• From template selection dialog select the iOS tab and then select App

• Enter a name for the project and set Interface to Storyboard and Language to Swift

• Choose a location to save the project

• Create a new folder Framework

• In a Finder window copy the framework file to the newly created folder. The framework should appear in the project navigator as below. (Note: in this case the framework has extension .framework but depending on how you built it or from where you obtained it your framework may have extension .xcframework)

• In the project navigator select the ViewController.swift file

• Add an import for the OpenCV framework below the existing import for UIKit

import opencv2

• Replace the implementation of the viewDidLoad function with the following code

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    let white = Scalar(255, 255, 255, 255)
    let black = Scalar(0, 0, 0, 255)
    let m = Mat(rows: 400, cols: Int32(view.frame.width), type: CvType.CV_8UC4, scalar: white)
    Imgproc.putText(img: m, text: "Hello World", org: Point(x: 10, y: 150), fontFace: HersheyFonts.FONT_HERSHEY_DUPLEX, fontScale: 2, color: black)
    let image = m.toUIImage()
    let imageView = UIImageView(image: image)
    self.view.addSubview(imageView)
}

• The ViewController.swift file should now look like this

• Launch the app

• The app home screen should look like this

If that has all worked well then congratulations. If not then feel free to reach out to the OpenCV community for help. Also feel free to contribute fixes and improvements.
