Building a simple program with OpenCV

There are many program samples that show how to use OpenCV using Python. In our case, we build a simple program to detect a circle in a still image.

Consider we have the following image, which is used for testing. You can find the image file in the source code files, called circle.png.

To find a circle in a still image, we use circle Hough Transform (CHT). A circle can be defined as follows:

(a,b) is the center of a circle with radius r. These parameters will be computed using the CHT method.

Let's build a demo! ...
