OpenCL/gpu and umat

edit

you can toggle ocl hardware / cpu usage with a flag:

#include "opencv2/core/ocl.hpp"
using namespace cv;

bool useOCL = true; 
ocl::setUseOpenCL(useOCL);
cout << "useOCL "  <<  cv::ocl::useOpenCL() << endl;

then, there's certain things, you cannot do with a UMat:

• pixel access (at())
• overloaded maths operators (C = A * B must be gemm(A,B,1,noArray(),0,C) )
• printing to stdout or such
• save / read to FileStorage or imread()/imwrite()
• gui / imshow()

for all of these it will need copying to a "normal"(CPU) Mat, before you can do that

unfortunately, there are no nice tutorials(yet), but have a look at the samples
