In this second section of the book, you will dive deeper into the OpenCV library. More specifically, you will see most of the common image processing techniques you will need in your computer vision projects. Additionally, you will see how to both create and understand histograms, which are powerful tools used to better understand image content. Furthermore, you will see the main thresholding techniques you will need in your computer vision applications as a key part of image segmentation. Also, you will see how to deal with contours, which are used for shape analysis and both object detection and recognition. Finally, you will learn how to build your first augmented reality applications.
The following chapters will be covered in this section:
- Chapter 5, Image Processing Techniques
- Chapter 6, Constructing and Building Histograms
- Chapter...
