Opencv cuda in python<br /><br />Introduction<br />We are using opencv in python, running on Ubuntu 14.04. We have seen that there is a great speedup when some of the functions of opencv are run on a gpu using cuda (See link below)<br />[login to view URL]<br />Unfortunately, to our knowledge cuda opencv is only available for C, not for python. Thus we would like to have a .so library containing the cuda opencv libraries that could be called by python. That .so library could be called in python using for example ctypes.<br />Requirements<br />1) A .so library containing the following opencv functions running on cuda:matchTemplate<br />cvtColor<br />inRange (not sure if it has cuda implementation)<br />bitwise_and (not sure if it has cuda implementation<br />createCLAHE (not sure if it has cuda implementation)2) A python example code calling that .so library, running those functions on an image and comparing the speed with the normal opencv python functions.<br />3) All the code used to create the .so library
