Source: [https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-70015-265/topic/build-with-the-qcs-launcher.html](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-70015-265/topic/build-with-the-qcs-launcher.html)

Use the Qualcomm Software Center (QSC) Launcher to download, compile, and flash the
        QIRP SDK.

**Prerequisites:**

- The QSC Launcher is installed using the steps in [Build with QSC Launcher](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/topics/80-70015-254/build_from_source_qsc_gui_intro.html) of *Qualcomm Linux Build Guide*.

## Download and compile

To use the QSC Launcher to download and compile the QIRP SDK, follow these steps:

**Steps:**

1. Open and log in to the QSC Launcher desktop application according to [Use QSC Launcher](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/topics/80-70015-254/build_from_source_qsc_gui_intro.html#use-qsc-launcher) of *Qualcomm Linux Build Guide*.
2. Follow the steps in [Use QSC Launcher](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/topics/80-70015-254/build_from_source_qsc_gui_intro.html#use-qsc-launcher) to specify environment,
                    and on the **Select Resources**page, do the following:
    1. In the **Base Workspace Path** text box, specify a directory path
                            where you want to download the software. You can click the select icon
                            to display the directory selection window.
    2. Select the product ID and release ID.

| Product ID | Release ID | Hardware |
        | --- | --- | --- |
        | QCM6490.LE.1.0 | See [Qualcomm® Linux Intelligent Robotics Product SDK (QIRP SDK) 2.0<br>                    Release Notes](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/topics/80-70015-260). For example, `r00270.1`. | RB3 Gen2 Vision Development Kit |
        | QCS9100.LE.1.0 | See [Qualcomm® Linux Intelligent Robotics Product SDK (QIRP SDK) 2.0<br>                    Release Notes](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/topics/80-70015-260). For example, `r00099.1`. | IQ-9100 Beta Evaluation Kit |
    3. Select the appropriate distro to download. Distro access is controlled
                            by access levels as listed in the following table:

| Access Level | Distribution | Yocto Layers |
