Fast grayscale image conversion with CUDA

After getting seriously disappointed searching for simple source-codes on Digital Image Processing using NVIDIA CUDA technology I decided it was time to do something about it.

This multi-platform project presents a nice, simple and straightforward technique for converting colored images to their grayscale representation using CUDA enabled GPUs to speed up processing, with the assistance of OpenCV for loading and saving images.

Full source-code is available for download. The software was successfully tested and compiled under Windows XP (MSVS2005) and Ubuntu Linux (g++), both using CUDA 2.3.
