Description
Learning OpenCV provides an introduction to computer vision and demonstrates how to build applications that enable computers to 'see' and make decisions based on data. Written by the creators of the free open source OpenCV library, this book introduces you to computer vision and its applications in various fields.
Computer vision is used in security systems, manufacturing inspection, medical image analysis, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, and more. It plays a role in tasks such as stitching Google maps and Google Earth together, checking the pixels on LCD screens, and ensuring the quality of fabric production.
This book includes hands-on exercises to help you learn how to use OpenCV's framework and its comprehensive library with over 500 functions that can run vision code in real time. Whether you want to build simple or sophisticated vision applications, Learning OpenCV is a useful resource for developers and hobbyists looking to get started.
