Tracking software to run on pi

Getting the pi set up

To make it possible to ssh into, use:

"For headless setup, SSH can be enabled by placing a file named ssh, without any extension, onto the boot partition of the SD card from another computer." -- https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/remote-access/ssh/

Edit /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf, enter:

ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1

network={
    ssid="SSID"
    psk="PASSWORD"
}

network={
    ssid="SSID"
    psk="PASSWORD"
}

Installation

Download the aravis library:

git clone https://github.com/AravisProject/aravis.git

Or donwload earlier version from http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/aravis/0.6/

then if you need the viewer (although I did find I had to split these installs).

sudo apt install libgtk-3-dev libnotify-dev libgstreamer1.0 libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad

other stuff...

sudo apt-get install gnome-common intltool valac libglib2.0-dev gobject-introspection libgirepository1.0-dev libgtk-3-dev libgnome-desktop-3-dev libcanberra-dev libgdata-dev libdbus-glib-1-dev libgstreamer1.0-dev libupower-glib-dev libxml2-dev

for a while now aravis has used meson for building...

sudo pip3 install ninja meson

cd aravis
meson build
cd build
meson configure -Dviewer=enabled -Dintrospection=enabled -Dgst-plugin=enabled
ninja
sudo ninja install
cd .. #to aravis
sudo ldconfig

(maybe see https://github.com/sightmachine/SimpleCV/wiki/Aravis-(Basler)-GigE-Camera-Install-Guide)
