One of the more overlooked areas in computer vision is its programming aspect. Because of the heavy dependence of computer vision on image and range data, the proper programming environment has to efficiently handle and manipulate such data. It also has to contain the fundamental operations such as input/output and basic operations such as image convolution and 2D blob extraction. This allows the programmer to concentrate on prototyping the algorithm currently being researched.
There are two chapters in this final section that address the issue of programming for computer vision. In Chapter 11, Bradski describes the well-known Open Source Computer Vision Library (OpenCV). OpenCV is a collection of C ...
