OpenCV with cuda
Hello, I am working on the TX2.
Actually, I have 5 images (6004*7920). Need to sum each pixel of the five images, in one, to calculate the average. For the first step, I use the function accumulate, i.e :
cv::Mat Image_Process = cv::Mat::zeros(height, width, CV_32FC1);
...
cv::accumulate(img1, Image_Process) ;
cv::accumulate(img2, Image_Process) ;
cv::accumulate(img3, Image_Process) ;
cv::accumulate(img4, Image_Process) ;
cv::accumulate(img5, Image_Process) ;
Image_Process = Image_Process/5 ;
That method is not very efficient ... Each accumulate function takes 50ms. Moreother, could explain why accumulate work only with CV_32FC1 ? (imgX are CV_8UC1)
To accelerate the process, I would like to send those images to the GPU, which will be faster. How can I send those images to GPU ? Furthermore, openCV can work with CUDA. Does accumulate function exist in CUDA ?
Thank you
