OpenCV2 Framework for Mac is a OpenCV2 distribution for Mac.
It aims to provide a OpenCV in a mac-way -- easy to use and works with all default softwares.

It's now based on OpenCV 2.4.6.1.

It comes with what you need.

• OpenCV2.framework
  • Mac-styled framework. (OpenCV 2.4.6.1)
• Binding for Apple Python
  • Binding for Apple's default python (2.7.2).
  • Works with default numpy (1.6.1)
• Binding for Python.org python
  • Binding for python.org python (2.7.5).
  • Works with official numpy (1.7.1).
  • Optional: works with official scipy.
• Binding for Apple Java (not tested.)

Currently it supports only OS X Mountain Lion. Works both for 32/64-bit Intel.

NOTICE: You must install python.org python BEFORE INSTALLING FRAMEWORK if you need a binding for it.
You can get at python.org. You also need to install official numpy. Optionally, you can install official scipy. All comes with binary.

To install,

• Download OpenCV2 Framework.pkg inside a folder OSX-Installer.
• Double click and install it. That's it :)

Download and run uninstall-osx-framework.sh.

You can compile Framework by yourself, with additional options. To compile, you need CMake and Xcode (with Command Line Tools).

To build a framework,

git clone https://github.com/kyogoku42/opencv2-framework-for-mac.git
cd opencv2-framework-for-mac
./build-osx-framework.sh

Framework will be put into OSX-Frameworks.

To build an installer,

cd OSX-Installer
./build-osx-installer.sh

Installer will be put into OSX-Installer.

To change compiling options, edit build-osx-framework.sh.

Compared to official OpenCV 2.4.6.1:

• Merged a fix for dpstereo.cpp. See this.
• Added a framework build script in platforms/osx.
  • Based on this and fixed/rewritten in more mac-way.
  • All compile options are reset to default except:
    • ON: AVFoundation.
    • OFF: Documents, Tests, Perforemance tests.
• Added a new module pythonorg in modules, which is a second python binding for python.org python.
• Puts training data into OpenCV2.framework/Resources/data.
