Discover and experiment with OpenCV
The OpenCV library is an extensive library aimed at providing real-time computer vision processing across multiple platforms. Essentially, if you want to do any serious image processing, object recognition, or analysis, then OpenCV is a perfect place to get started.
Fortunately, the latest release of OpenCV (version 3) has added support for interfacing via Python 3. Although performing real-time video processing can often require a computer with a powerful CPU, it will run on relativity limited devices such as the original Raspberry Pi (version 1). Using the more powerful Raspberry Pi 2 is highly recommended for the following recipes.
The concepts and underlying methods behind image and video processing can get ...
