TBDSG: Intro to OpenCV (computer vision) WORKSHOP
Details
Amy will give us a presentation (maybe a workshop) on the opencv computer vision package.
It will go something like this:
Intro to OpenCV:
- getting started
- paint! but with code!
- understanding different computer vision problems
- face/object detection
- real time video analysis
- masking
- feature matching
- object tracking
- identifying text
- extracting text and misc. features for solving business problems
We'll be trying this in a workshop format so bring a laptop with opencv-contrib-python and dependencies installed if you can. pypi has some helpful tips if you have trouble (Windows).
