GRIP Computer Vision Engine

GRIP (the Graphically Represented Image Processing engine) is an application for rapidly prototyping and deploying computer vision algorithms, primarily for robotics applications. Developing a vision program can be difficult because it is hard to visualize the intermediate results. GRIP simplifies and accelerates the creation of vision systems for experienced users and reduces the barrier to entry for inexperienced users. As a result, many teams with minimal computer vision knowledge successfully used GRIP in the 2016 FIRST Robotics Competition game.

Check out the release notes and the wiki for more information.

Building GRIP From Source

To build and run, use the included Gradle wrapper script on a Unix System:

./gradlew :ui:run

On Windows:

gradlew.bat :ui:run

If you don't have an internet connection you can build using the --offline flag if you have built GRIP once before.
