Summary

This brings us to the end of the first chapter of this book. We started by discussing the important core concepts of computer vision – what an image is, what pixels are, and what their attributes are. Then, we discussed the libraries that we will use throughout our computer vision journey – OpenCV, Matplotlib, and NumPy. We also learned how we can use these libraries to read, process, display, and save images. Finally, we learned how to access and manipulate pixels and used this concept to generate interesting results in the final exercise and activity.

In the next chapter, we will look deeper into image processing and how OpenCV can help us with that. The more you practice, the easier it will be for you to figure out what concept you need to employ to get a result. So, keep on practicing.
