sdkdemo

This project is a basic example of how to use GelSightSDK. The SDK provides functions and data structures for converting images from GelSight systems into 3D heightmaps.

Windows

This project assumes you have the GS_SDK environment variable set to the path to your GelSightSdk folder. You also need a valid license for GelSightSdk.

• Run the copysdk.bat script to copy the dlls from your GelSightSdk folder into the build directories
• Open the solution and build

Linux

This project assumes you have the GS_SDK environment variable set to the path to your GelSightSdk folder. You also need a valid license for GelSightSdk.

Install the license

• sudo mkdir 777 /etc/gelsight
• sudo cp /etc/gelsight/gelsight_64.bin

To build and run on linux, you need the following pkgs

• sudo apt-get update
• sudo apt-get install cmake
• sudo apt-get install libpng-dev
• sudo apt install libeigen3-dev
• sudo apt install libeigen3-dev
• sudo apt-get install libgtest-dev
• sudo apt-get install libfl-dev
• sudo apt install subversion
• sudo apt-get install uuid-dev
• sudo apt-get libopencv-dev python3-dev

Set the environment variables

• export GS_SDK=path_to_sdk
• export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=path_to_sdk/lib

Use CMake to create the make files

• mkdir build
• cd build
• cmake ..; make

Run the demo

• cd build
• ./demo/demo
