How to add custom Opencv library into pycharm

Basically I am developing a project using OpenVino and OpenCV,to do so I cannot use the normal and easy way of using pip to install opencv library but instead Intel provided their own optimized version OpenCV.

I cannot find a place to add the path for the custom OpenCV in pycharm. If anybody can enlighten me,please do so.

Thank you in advance.

Goto C:\Python27\DLLs directory and paste the cv2.pyd file.
