Novint falcon is integrated using the HDAL SDK on Visual Studio. I could not find any documentation online to install the SDK on QT. I tried to include the HDAl library and header files in my QT project. The .pro file looks like this.The error is
:-1: error: No rule to make target '../imagesegment/hdl.h', needed by 'debug/main.o'. Stop.

Figured it out. We need to add the header files and libs as mentioned in the qmake documentation on qt website. Try to save qt in a folder with 'no spaces' in it's path.
