Alternatives to VAS on macOS

[techieinprague]

Hello everyone,

I'm new to LabVIEW and I'm working on my final year dissertation related to autonomous driving and image recognition using camera. I'm using a macOS and LabVIEW is working just fine. 

My goal is to build a recognition system for several defined objects (ie. road sign, vehicle in front...) in LabVIEW and make it ready for motion picture and also for a static picture to identify expected differences in recognition accuracy (and expect to make both ready for various picture resolution settings).

I did a little research and found I need to use an additional software package VAS which seems like is not available for macOS. Any recommendations on what's the best way to approach this or even if it's possible for me to continue without a windowsOS?

Any advice is highly appreciated! Thank you.

You should take a look on https://labview.epfl.ch

The AVFLib.zip may be interesting or the newer LVsOCV.zip which uses Python as backend.

so there's no Vision Acquisition Software available for macOS?
I forgot to add, i'll have to use TensorFlow later in my work on LabVIEW, so i think the best might be to use python from this point. Thanks.
