PhotonVision is the free, fast, and easy-to-use computer vision solution for the *FIRST* Robotics Competition. You can read an overview of our features [on our website](https://photonvision.org). You can find our comprehensive documentation [here](https://docs.photonvision.org).
|
|
|
|
A copy of the latest Raspberry Pi image is available [here](https://github.com/PhotonVision/photon-pi-gen/releases). A copy of the latest standalone JAR is available [here](https://github.com/PhotonVision/photonvision/releases). If you are a Gloworm user you can find the latest Gloworm image [here](https://github.com/gloworm-vision/pi-gen/releases).

## Gradle Arguments
|
|
|
|
Note that these are case sensitive!
|
|
|
|
* `-PArchOverride=foobar`: builds for a target system other than your current architecture. Valid overrides are:
|
|
* linuxathena
|
|
* linuxarm32
|
|
* linuxarm64
|
|
* arm32
|
|
* arm64
|
|
* x86-64
|
|
* x86
|
|
- `-PtgtIp`: Specifies where `./gradlew deploy` should try to copy the fat JAR to
|
|
- `-Pprofile`: enables JVM profiling
|
|
|
|
## Building
|
|
|
|
Gradle is used for all C++ and Java code, and NPM is used for the web UI. Instructions to compile PhotonVision yourself can be found [in our docs](https://docs.photonvision.org/en/latest/docs/contributing/photonvision/build-instructions.html?highlight=npm%20install#compiling-instructions).
|
|
|
|
You can run one of the many built in examples straight from the command line, too! They contain a fully featured robot project, and some include simulation support. The projects can be found inside the `photonlib-java-examples` and `photonlib-cpp-examples` subdirectories, respectively. The projects currently available include:
|
|
|
|
- photonlib-java-examples:
|
|
- aimandrange:simulateJava
|
|
- aimattarget:simulateJava
|
|
- getinrange:simulateJava
|
|
- simaimandrange:simulateJava
|
|
- simposeest:simulateJava
|
|
- photonlib-cpp-examples:
|
|
- aimandrange:simulateNative
|
|
- getinrange:simulateNative
|
|
|
|
To run them, use the commands listed below. Photonlib must first be published to your local maven repository, then the `copyPhotonlib` task will copy the generated vendordep json file into each example. After that, the simulateJava/simulateNative task can be used like a normal robot project. Robot simulation with attached debugger is technically possible by using simulateExternalJava and modifying the launch script it exports, though unsupported.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
~/photonvision$ ./gradlew publishToMavenLocal
|
|
|
|
~/photonvision$ cd photonlib-java-examples
|
|
~/photonvision/photonlib-java-examples$ ./gradlew copyPhotonlib
|
|
~/photonvision/photonlib-java-examples$ ./gradlew <example-name>:simulateJava
|
|
|
|
~/photonvision$ cd photonlib-cpp-examples
|
|
~/photonvision/photonlib-cpp-examples$ ./gradlew copyPhotonlib
|
|
~/photonvision/photonlib-cpp-examples$ ./gradlew <example-name>:simulateNative
|
|
```

|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo apt install libcholmod3 liblapack3 libsuitesparseconfig5
|
|
```
