Overview of this book

<p>Most technologies are developed with an inspiration of human capabilities. Most of the time, the hardest to implement capability is vision. Development of highly capable computer vision applications in an easy way requires a generic approach. In this approach, Arduino is a perfect tool for interaction with the real world. Moreover, the combination of OpenCV and Arduino boosts the level and quality of practical computer vision applications.</p> <p>Computer vision is the next level of sensing the environment. The purpose of this book is to teach you how to develop Arduino-supported computer vision systems that can interact with real life by seeing it.</p> <p>This book will combine the powers of Arduino and computer vision in a generalized, well-defined, and applicable way. The practices and approaches in the book can be used for any related problems and on any platforms. At the end of the book, you should be able to solve any types of real life vision problems with all its components by using the presented approach. Each component will extend your vision with the best practices on the topic.</p> <p>In each chapter, you will find interesting real life practical application examples about the topics in the chapter. To make it grounded, we will build a vision-enabled robot step by step towards the end of the book. You will observe that, even though the contexts of the problems are very different, the approaches to solve them are the same and very easy!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

Chapter 6. Recognition with OpenCV

This chapter is about the recognition methods used to arrive at a conclusion at the end of the vision process. Generally, a computer vision system extracts information from the sensor data and forms a decision such as detection, classification, or recognition. The decision comes after the feature extraction and is the recognition phase. This chapter will briefly explain the recognition process with a practical approach and you will also learn about the recognition capabilities of OpenCV, and much more! This chapter will enable you to write a brain for your vision-enabled application.
