Third-party libraries
Prior to build ViSP, it can be useful to install third-party libraries
to increase ViSP capabilities. All the third-party libraries given in
the following tables are optional. They aren't required to build ViSP.
Sometimes, for a given platform (Linux, OSX, Windows) more than one
third-party library can bring the same capability. This for example
the case for display, matrix computation and simulator
capabilities. In that case, we indicate which is the recommended
third-party library.
Click on the library's name to have more details.
