Overview of this book

OpenCV is one of the best open source libraries available, and can help you focus on constructing complete projects on image processing, motion detection, and image segmentation. Whether you’re completely new to computer vision, or have a basic understanding of its concepts, Learn OpenCV 4 by Building Projects – Second edition will be your guide to understanding OpenCV concepts and algorithms through real-world examples and projects. You’ll begin with the installation of OpenCV and the basics of image processing. Then, you’ll cover user interfaces and get deeper into image processing. As you progress through the book, you'll learn complex computer vision algorithms and explore machine learning and face detection. The book then guides you in creating optical flow video analysis and background subtraction in complex scenes. In the concluding chapters, you'll also learn about text segmentation and recognition and understand the basics of the new and improved deep learning module. By the end of this book, you'll be familiar with the basics of Open CV, such as matrix operations, filters, and histograms, and you'll have mastered commonly used computer vision techniques to build OpenCV projects from scratch.

Learning Graphical User Interfaces

In Chapter 2, An Introduction to the Basics of OpenCV, we learned the basic classes and structures of OpenCV and the most important class, called Mat. We learned how to read and save images and videos and the internal structure in the memory of images. We are now ready to work with OpenCV, but, in most cases, we need to show our image results and retrieve user interaction with our images using a number of user interfaces. OpenCV provides us with a few basic user interfaces to facilitate the creation of our applications and prototypes. To better understand how the user interface works, we are going to create a small application called PhotoTool at the end of this chapter. In this application, we will learn how to use filters and color conversions.

This chapter introduces the following topics:

  • The OpenCV basic user interface
  • The OpenCV Qt interface...
