I want to install OpenCV On BegalBoard XM please suggest me some simple steps to install Opencv library on begalboard and how to use it. I want to perform a real time video processing on it. Thanks in advance.

You first target should be to compile it from the sources on Laptop/Host.
Then once you succeed on that then you just have to tweak configure in terms of BB. It won't be a difficult task once you understand how to do it on HOST. Then move on to a TARGET.

Thanks for your quick reply. I have achieved first target ie. I can run OPENCV program on my pc. and i want to run it onto BB. my first problem is how to install OPENCV on BB? and another is how to run the program on it?
did you try google ? "opencv+angstrom" ... the best answers are within the top 3 results.
note however, that coming from a PC world, openCV performance on BB might seem very inadequate, for many purposes. a year back when we did a similar exercise, on moving from a 2GHz PIV with 1GB RAM (deliberately we kept it a low end platform), to BB-xM, we were shocked to see the performance difference (framerate was almost 30% for many/most tasks, compared to similar workflow on PC).

I think the performance hit was because the DSP was not utilized. I am not into much of how DSP processing is done by ARM processors, but TI has released a specific GNU toolchain for for beagleboard. What TI recommends is you use Android for development, since all this intricacies and optimization is done for Android OS. I am not much of an android fan, would recommend to stick with Linux + QT + C++ combination, instead of running into semi-proprietary software like Android.
BTW Are you using the toolchain released by TI for development ?

1) Which toolchain you using? 2) Which Embedded Linux? Monta Vista or something else? 3) Do you have official OpenCV sources ? 4) Have you read documents in OpenCV sources on how to compile on various platforms?
I agree with Chaitannya, using official toolchain uses DSP to the extent. I have practically experience of that on DaVinci.
The only way Vaibhav one can help is when you go and implement it.
