+# Local deployment
+
+## Build and install
+
+Clone the repository and enter it:
+
+```bash
+git clone <repository-url>
+cd apriltag
+```
+
+Configure a Release build, then build and install it:
+
+```bash
+cmake -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
+cmake --build build --target install
+```
+
+The default install prefix is usually `/usr/local`. If your account cannot write
+there, run the install command with the appropriate administrator privileges, or
+configure CMake with a writable `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX`.
+
+## Select the camera
+
+Before running, set the camera index in `apriltag_cc.py` to the correct device:
+
+```python
+cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
+```
+
+Replace `0` with the index for the desired camera. On Linux, camera device nodes
+are typically `/dev/video0`, `/dev/video1`, and so on; the intended camera may
+not be index `0`.
+
+## Run
+
+If your default Python package path is `/usr/local/lib/python3.12/dist-packages/`,
+run the script with the installed package directory included in `PYTHONPATH`:
+
+```bash
+PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages python3 apriltag_cc.py
+```
+
+Adjust the Python version and package path if your installation uses different
+locations.
