#PROJECT OVERVIEW This project implemented Collision Avoidance for the Iron Car. It uses the StereoVision code by last semester's Student Laurie Marceau. The code was refactored and updated to use OpenCV 3.1.0.

If you want to dive into the functionality of my Collision Avoidance algorithms, see my presentations in documentation/Slides/

#BUILDING THE PROJECT

To build the project, clone this repository and use one of the provided build scripts to build the project: ###1. If you just want the normal linux build, just use this script:

./build.sh

###2. If you are using OSX and want to code with Xcode, use this script:

./build_Xcode.sh

###3. If you want to use CLion from Jetbrains, import the CMakeLists.txt file into CLion
