We as humans can see and interpret images using our visual system and remember using our memory, but how do computers remember and interpret images?
Machines store images in the form of square boxes which contain numbers and each square box is called a pixel. The values of each pixel together make an image. The numbers in square boxes are stored in the form of a matrix of numbers. The size of the matrix depends upon the size of the image (n x m) which refers to the number of pixels in an image.
Images are classified into two types
- Grayscale images
- Color Images
OpenCV: The image processing library which stands for Open-Source Computer Vision Library was invented by intel in 1999 and written in C/C++. The library’s function is to perform image processing jobs such as Resizing, Blurring, sharpening, transformations, etc.
