To access the webcam on the Verdin iMX8M Plus using OpenCV and display the frames on the screen, you can utilize the GStreamer framework, which is pre-installed in the Reference Multimedia Image. You can use GStreamer to capture video from the webcam and then process it with OpenCV to display the frames.
Regarding having a desktop environment similar to Raspbian on Raspberry Pi, you can use Torizon, which is a Linux-based operating system provided by Toradex. Torizon supports running applications in containers, and you can install a desktop environment within a container using Debian packages. This setup allows you to have a graphical user interface on the Verdin iMX8M Plus.
For more detailed instructions, you might want to refer to the Toradex documentation on setting up a graphical environment and using GStreamer with OpenCV.
