By now, we should have an OpenCV installation that will serve our needs for the diverse projects described in this book. Depending on which approach we took, we may also have a set of tools and scripts that can be used to reconfigure and rebuild OpenCV for our future needs.
Now, we also know where to find OpenCV's Python samples. These samples covered a different range of functionalities outside this book's scope, but they are useful as additional learning aids.
In the next chapter, we will familiarize ourselves with the most basic functions of the OpenCV API, namely, displaying images and videos, capturing videos through a webcam, and handling basic keyboard and mouse inputs.
