Incorporate OpenCV's powerful computer vision application programming techniques to build and make your own applications stand out from the crowd"OpenCV Computer Vision Application Programming" allows you to dive into the world of computer vision and get many practical benefits from it with minimal effort. You will learn to recognize and identify specific faces among others, or even train your very own object detector to use it for your own specific purposes."OpenCV Computer Vision Application Programming" helps you get started with the library by first learning how to install OpenCV correctly on your system. You will then explore basic image processing concepts as well as the different interfaces that you can use in OpenCV. Develop techniques to separate foreground and background in your images, create stunning panoramas easily by stitching normal images together, enhance your photographs, calibrate your camera and automatically detect common objects like faces or people on your images. Reduce the distortion of your photographs and make straight lines of the scene look straight instead of bent in your images.You will learn to change the perspective of your images so that it appears that you are moving around, similar to google street view navigation and develop a 3D representation of a scene using stereoscopic images.On completion of this course, you will be able to mix and match the provided examples to build your own application.About the AuthorSebastian Montabone is a computer engineer with a Master of Science degree in computer vision. He is the author of scientific articles regarding image processing and a book, Beginning Digital Image Processing: Using Free Tools for Photographers.
.
He uses many open source software and strongly believes in the open source philosophy. Embedded systems also have been of interest to him, especially mobile phones

OpenCV Basics 5 lectures 23:36 OpenCV Interfaces OpenCV offers different programming interfaces. Get to know which are the possible programming languages that can be used with OpenCV.
  • Show the different programming interfaces available
  • Describe each interface
  • Know which one we should use depending on our project
C Interface Basics The C interface is useful as many examples are written in it. Here we will learn the basics of it. We will also learn how to use pkg-config to compile the code.
  • Write a C program that reads an image
  • Use pkg-config to compile it and use your code in your own projects easily, specially old code
  • Learn how to compile the code effectively
OpenCV Basics - C++ Interface Basics The C++ interface is useful as it provides better memory management than the C interface. Here we will learn the basics of it. We will also learn how to compile it using CMake.
  • Write a C++ program that reads an image
  • Use CMake to compile it and hence compile large and complex projects easily
  • Remember that we can also use pkg-config to compile C++ programs as well
Python Interface Basics The Python interface is useful because many people are more confident with Python rather than C/C++. Also, the final code is usually shorter as compared to using C or C++. Here we will learn the basics of it.
  • Write and run a Python program that reads an image
  • Access the pixels of the image. Read and write them
  • Learn how to use chmod to activate the executable flag and then run it directly
Drawing Shapes Drawing shapes such as rectangles, lines, circles, or text is very useful when working with OpenCV. Here we will learn the basics of it.
