Release Notes

Learning OpenCV puts you right in the middle of the rapidly expanding field of

computer vision. Written by the creators of OpenCV, the widely used free open-

source library, this book introduces you to computer vision and demonstrates how

you can quickly build applications that enable computers to "see" and make

decisions based on the data. Computer vision is everywhere -- in security

systems, manufacturing inspection systems, medical image analysis, Unmanned

Aerial Vehicles, and more. It helps robot cars drive by themselves, stitches

Google maps and Google Earth together, checks the pixels on your laptop's LCD

screen, and makes sure the stitches in your shirt are OK. OpenCV provides an

easy-to-use computer vision infrastructure along with a comprehensive library

containing more than 500 functions that can run vision code in real time. With

Learning OpenCV, any developer or hobbyist can get up and running with the

framework quickly, whether it's to build simple or sophisticated vision

applications. The book includes: A thorough introduction to OpenCV Getting input

from cameras Transforming images Shape matching Pattern recognition, including

face detection Segmenting images Tracking and motion in 2 and 3 dimensions

Machine learning algorithms Hands-on exercises at the end of each chapter help

you absorb the concepts, and an appendix explains how to set up an OpenCV

project in Visual Studio. OpenCV is written in performance optimized C/C++ code,

runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X, and is free for commercial and research

use under a BSD license. Getting machines to see is a challenging but

entertaining goal. If you're intrigued by the possibilities, Learning OpenCV

gets you startedonbuilding computer vision applications of your own.
