Learning OpenCV 4 Computer Vision with Python 3 - Third Edition

Preface

Now in its third edition, this is the original book on OpenCV's Python bindings. Readers will learn a great range of techniques and algorithms, from the classics to the state-of-the-art, and from geometry to machine learning. All of this is in aid of solving practical computer vision problems in well-built applications. Using OpenCV 4 and Python 3, we adopt an approach that is accessible to computer vision novices, yet also informative for experts who want to expand and update their skills.

We start with an introduction to OpenCV 4 and explain how to set it up with Python 3 on various platforms. Next, you'll learn how to perform basic operations such as reading, writing, manipulating, and displaying still images, videos, and camera ...
