Hello, Liyanguestc,
The short answer there is no cost to using FastCV, please use it as you see fit to accelerate your applications. The longer answer is the following.
LicensingThere is no charge for the rights granted under the FastCV SDK License Agreement. Below are the rights stated in the license agreement.

I hope this helps,

Yes, but doesn't the "personal" imply that it is a non-commercial license? Or is it that businesses are now considered a legal person?
"...QTI hereby grants to You a personal, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, revocable, limited copyright license"...
Yes FastCV is free, and you can use it as you wish for your commercial apps.
Cheers,
