SuperPoint feature extractor with cpp/c++ Implementation

Hello, this is my old project. But, for some people that have a interest in applying superpoint featuer extractor to own project, I've written this README file. If this project was of little help to your project, please strike the star button. Enjoy!!

Prerequisite

In this project, following packages are used. Make sure that the right version of libraries is installed and linked.

1. Nvidia-driver & Cuda Toolkit 10.2 with cuDNN 7.6.5

   About Cuda toolkit installation, there are so many guides. Follow it! \ First : sudo apt-get install nvidia-driver-440 (It is normal for a higher version of the secondary nvidia library to be installed. Just check that 'nvidia-driver-440' is installed.) \ Second : Follow instructions in this link (https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-10.2-download-archive)

2. OpenCV (C++) 3.4.11 version

   # Installation script
   chmod +x INSTALL_OpenCV.sh
   ./INSTALL_OpenCV.sh

3. LibTorch 1.6.0 version (with GPU | Cuda Toolkit 10.2, cuDNN 7.6.5)

   If only CPU can be used, install cpu-version LibTorch. Some code change about tensor device should be required.

   # Installation script
   chmod +x INSTALL_LibTorch.sh
   ./INSTALL_LibTorch.sh

BUILD

cmake -B build -S .
cmake --build build -t SuperPoint

RUN

• You can use your webcam for fancy test. It'll be automatically detected in normal case.

  # argument is frequncy
  ./bin/SuperPoint 100
