About
Wikipedia: OpenCV
- OpenCV is an open source computer vision library originally developed by Intel. It is free for commercial and research use under a BSD license. The library is cross-platform, and runs on Mac OS X, Windows and Linux. It focuses mainly on real-time image processing, as such, if it finds Intel's Integrated Performance Primitives (IPP) on the system, it will use these commercial optimized routines to accelerate itself.
- OpenCV's application areas include:
- Human-Computer Interface (HCI)
- Object Identification
- Segmentation and Recognition
- Face Recognition
- Gesture Recognition
- Motion Tracking
- ...
