Chapter 1. Applying Geometric Transformations to Images
In this chapter, we are going to learn how to apply cool geometric effects to images. Before we get started, we need to install OpenCV-Python. We will explain how to compile and install the necessary libraries to follow every example in this book.
By the end of this chapter, you will know:
- How to install OpenCV-Python
- How to read, display, and save images
- How to convert to multiple color spaces
- How to apply geometric transformations such as translation, rotation, and scaling
- How to use affine and projective transformations to apply funny geometric effects to photos
