OpenCV 4 with Python Blueprints - Second Edition

Preface

The goal of this book is to get you hands-on with a wide range of intermediate to advanced projects using the latest version of the OpenCV 4 framework and the Python 3.8 language instead of only covering the core concepts of computer vision in theoretical lessons.

This updated second edition has increased the depth of the concepts we tackle with OpenCV. It will guide you through working on independent hands-on projects that focus on essential computer vision concepts such as image processing, 3D scene reconstruction, object detection, and object tracking. It will also cover, with real-life examples, statistical learning and deep neural networks.

You will begin by understanding concepts such as image filters and feature matching, as ...
