Couldn’t Compile OpenCV with WITH_CUDA=ON

post by kev1n on Feb 4, 2021

I try to install OpenCV with CUDA. I followed the instruction from OpenCV in lambda-stack - non-gpu? - #2 by leonnowsden

When I cmake the file, I got the error that said:

– Found Threads: TRUE

CMake Warning at cmake/OpenCVFindLibsPerf.cmake:45 (message):

OpenCV is not able to find/configure CUDA SDK (required by WITH_CUDA).

CUDA support will be disabled in OpenCV build.

To eliminate this warning remove WITH_CUDA=ON CMake configuration option.

I think this may be related to the CUDA path. Because if you install the nvidia-cuda-toolkit manually, by default the path of CUDA should be /usr/local/cuda-11.0. But I can’t find this path with Lambda Stack installed.

Any help would be appreciated.

I don’t think you want cuda to build opencv. You want to use it later, but the make file doesn’t have anything that wants cuda.
