I followed the "Easy Install Option" after at "Compiling JeVois library and base apps for host computer" I got the following message for the command "./rebuild-host.sh":

I looked one of previous posting and commented SUBVERSION at lines 248 to 254.  Now I get the following errors:

The easy install option didn't work for me either with fresh Ubuntu 16.10 x64 install. Removing the subversion lines was necessary, building opencv3.2 was necessary, which seems to be your issue here. Line 214 of the INSTALL.TXT file "./reinstall.sh # do this only once, will download some contributed packages and patch them" is also bad. You need to comment out the lines that DELETE files in that script. Either that or move the cvEyeTracker folder out, run that script, and move it back to the directory. The version that it is supposed to pull in when you uncomment the lines that are commented is no good, and if you lose that folder you lose a bunch of headers other projects reference.

Those are the two things I had to do to get jevois and jevois base to build properly. I think the easy install is mostly only useful for not having to build the kernel, assuming that works. I haven't had a chance to try yet. Currently trying to get it to all run and compile on an RPi3, much worse. Good luck and ask if you have any more issues.

  • You should comment (start with #) line 248 to 254 of ~/jevois/CMakeLists.txt
  • Then insert at line 51 of ~/jevois-easy-install.sh

####################################################################################################
read -p "Compile OpenCV 3.2 [Y/n]? "
if [ "X$REPLY" != "Xn" ]; then
    cd opencv32
    mkdir build
    cd build
    cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local -DWITH_TBB=ON -DWITH_V4L=ON -DWITH_QT=ON -DWITH_OPENGL=OFF -DWITH_VTK=OFF -DWITH_CUDA=OFF -DBUILD_opencv_python2=OFF -DBUILD_opencv_python3=OFF -DWITH_PYTHON=OFF -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=ON -DINSTALL_C_EXAMPLES=OFF -DOPENCV_EXTRA_MODULES_PATH=~/opencv32/opencv_contrib-3.2.0/modules -DBUILD_opencv_hdf=OFF -DENABLE_PRECOMPILED_HEADERS=Off ../opencv-3.2.0
    make -j 2
    cd ~/
fi

  • Then modify ~/jevois-easy-install.sh next lines as

read -p "Install OpenCV 3.2 to /usr/local [Y/n]? "
if [ "X$REPLY" != "Xn" ]; then
    cd ~/opencv32/build
    sudo make install
    cd ~/

This is coming from something not working during the 'git pull' which is part of ~/jevoisbase/Contrib/reinstall.sh: the cvEyeTracker folder is not being pulled from jevois github repository as it should.
I had to change 'git pull' by 'git reset --hard' in that file.
Then the cvEyeTracker gets pulled and the compilation can start.

I am now stuck by a compilation error on ~/jevoisbase/src/Components/ObjectRecognition/ObjectRecognition.C:

In file included from /home/lwx/jevoisbase/Contrib/tiny-dnn/tiny_dnn/core/kernels/conv2d_op.h:56:0,

     output_ptr, threadpool, profile);

Fixing scripts is Ok for me, diving into the code to fix it is beyond my skills...
Having said that, the 'git reset --hard' may have damaged my local repository or patched files incorrectly...

If anybody has any clue, please tell us!
so sorry for the delay, I am in Japan until Sunday night and will send you all some fixes early next week. Thanks for your patience with these glitches.
Thank you for your patience. A new version (1.0b) of the easy install package has been uploaded on Feb 28, 2017. Please see updated instructions at

https://github.com/jevois/jevois/blob/master/INSTALL

under "EASY INSTALL OPTION"
