CUVI Core

CUVI Core includes the following helper functionality:

CuviImage

A C++ class to hold image data on the device. It has the following methods

  • CuviImage(); - default constructor
  • CuviImage(CuviSize size, Cuvi32u depth, Cuvi32u channels) - Main Constructor. throws exception in case of failure
  • CuviImage(const CuviImage&) - copy constructor
  • CuviImage(const CuviMat&) - copy constructor to initialize from CuviMat
  • Upload(void* pSrcHost, size_t srcPitch, CuviStream* stream = NULL) - Copy image data from host to device. Async operation supported
  • Download(void* pDstHost, size_t dstPitch, CuviStream* stream = NULL) - Copy image data from device to host
  • Show(char* title = "CUVI Image",int milliseconds = 0) - Render device image directly on the screen
  • ~CuviImage() - Destructor. Frees Device Memory. throws exception in case of failure

Timer

CUVI provides a C++ Timer class that accurately profiles your application timing

  • Start() - Starts the timer.
  • Stop() - Stops the timer
  • Reset() - Resets the timer
  • GetElapsedTime() - Returns the elapsed time between Start and Stop calls in seconds

DeviceProperties

CuviDeviceProperties holds all the important properties of underlying CUDA device. Device management functions are present inside the namespace cuvi::device.

  • Cuvi32s getDeviceCount() - Gives the count of devices installed in the machine
  • Cuvi32s getCurentDevice() - Returns the ID of selected graphics card
  • CuviStatus setCurrentDevice(const Cuvi32s ID) - Makes any device an active device
  • CuviStatus getDeviceProperties(const Cuvi32s deviceID, CuviDeviceProperties& props) - Returns all the important properties of desired GPU
