OpenCV is an open source library for computer vision operations such as image and video analysis. OpenCV is primarily developed by Intel in C++ and offers interfaces with Python, Java, and Matlab. OpenCV has the following features:

  • It is an open source image processing Python library.
  • OpenCV is the core Python library for image processing and computer vision.
  • OpenCV is easy to learn and deploy with web and mobile applications.
  • OpenCV in Python is an API and wrapper around its C++ core implementation.
  • It is fast due to background C++ code.

We can install OpenCV using the following command:

pip install opencv-python

Using the preceding pip command, we can easily install OpenCV. OpenCV is the most popular library for image processing and computer vision tasks. It offers various use cases related to image analysis operations such as improving image quality, filtering and transforming images, drawing on images, changing colors, detecting faces and objects, identifying...
