You can master Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and OpenCV - PyImageSearch
I publish a brand new Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and OpenCV tutorial every Monday at 10AM EST. Here you'll find my most recent tutorials and guides.
Over the past two weeks on the PyImageSearch blog, we have discussed how to use threading to increase our FPS processing rate on both built-in/USB webcams, along with the Raspberry Pi camera module. By utilizing threading, we learned that we…

Today is the second post in our three part series on milking every last bit of performance out of your webcam or Raspberry Pi camera. Last week we discussed how to: Increase the FPS rate of our video processing pipeline.…

Over the next few weeks, I’ll be doing a series of blog posts on how to improve your frames per second (FPS) from your webcam using Python, OpenCV, and threading. Using threading to handle I/O-heavy tasks (such as reading frames…

In this blog post I’ll demonstrate how to install OpenCV 3 on the Raspberry Pi Zero. Since I’ve covered how to install OpenCV on the Raspberry Pi in multiple, previous blog posts, I’ll keep this post on the shorter side…

Well. I’ll just come right out and say it. Today is my 27th birthday. As a kid I was always super excited about my birthday. It was another year closer to being able to drive a car. Go to R…

Today’s blog post wouldn’t be possible without PyImageSearch Gurus member, Hans Boone. Hans is working on a computer vision project to automatically detect Machine-readable Zones (MRZs) in passport images — much like the region detected in the image above. The…

As we all know, OpenCV 3.0 was officially released back in June of 2015. This new update incorporated a ton of new features and optimizations, including Python 3 bindings. But the big question on everyone’s mind is: “Should I switch to OpenCV…

Last week we discussed how to use OpenCV and Python to perform pedestrian detection. To accomplish this, we leveraged the built-in HOG + Linear SVM detector that OpenCV ships with, allowing us to detect people in images. However, one aspect…

I’ve met a lot of amazing, uplifting people over the years. My PhD advisor who helped get me through graduate school. My father who was always there for me as a kid — and still is now. And my girlfriend…
