2. Download source code

All source code is available on GitHub. You can download main Horus project by doing:

Horus

git clone https://github.com/bq/horus.git

or

git clone git@github.com:bq/horus.git

Several improvements and optimizations have been made in GNU/Linux version of OpenCV libraries. If you want to contribute to this custom version, you can download it from:

Custom OpenCV

git clone https://github.com/bq/opencv.git

or

git clone git@github.com:bq/opencv.git

3. Build packages

Horus development comes with a script "package.sh", this script has been designed to run under *nix OSes (Linux, MacOS). For Windows the package.sh script can be run from bash using git. The "package.sh" script generates a final release package. You should not need it during development, unless you are changing the release process. If you want to distribute your own version of Horus, then the package.sh script will allow you to do that.
