| Due to the difficulty in setting up, testing, and tweaking computer vision algorithmic pipelines using OpenCV alone, the RoboVision GUI was made to make this process extremely fast and easy. Before moving on, you should read the vision system wiki to get a better understanding of the underlying data structures and use cases of this tool. | Due to the difficulty in setting up, testing, and tweaking computer vision algorithmic pipelines using OpenCV alone, the RoboVision GUI was made to make this process extremely fast and easy.

| - | Using RoboVision should be somewhat intuitive as it's a very simple tool that mirrors the vision system. To load a video click 'Load' at the top right corner next to the video scrubber. It should only list compatible video codecs in the file explorer. (NOTE: Due to the nature of OpenCV's VideoCapture object, some codecs will not run or may even crash the tool. This is due to lack of support for some codecs in OpenCV's source code and can't be fixed unless we change libraries for video objects.) Once loaded you should see the first frame of the video in the center of your screen. | + | Using RoboVision should be somewhat intuitive as it's a very simple tool that mirrors the vision system.

| - | To Load a filtering tree you can select 'Open' in the file menu or 'Ctrl-O'. It should only list .xml files in the file explorer. Some sample trees should be in 'settings/vision/trees/'. If it properly loads you should see windows appear for each filter and the filters in the tree-view panel on the right side. | + | To Load a filtering tree you can select ''Open'' in the file menu or ''Ctrl-O''.
