Computer Vision Using Simplecv and the Raspberry Pi 2
1 COMPUTER VISION USING SIMPLECV AND THE RASPBERRY PI Cuauhtemoc Carbajal ITESM CEM Reference: Practical Computer Vision with SimpleCV - Demaagd (2012) Enabling Computers To See 2 SimpleCV is an open source framework for building computer vision applications. With it, you get access to several high-powered computer vision libraries such as OpenCV – without having to first learn about bit depths, file formats, color spaces, buffer management, eigenvalues, or matrix versus bitmap storage. This is computer vision made easy. SimpleCV is an open source framework 3 It is a collection of libraries and software that you can use to develop vision applications. It lets you work with the images or video streams that come from webcams, Kinects, FireWire and IP cameras, or mobile phones. It’s helps you build software to make your various technologies not only see the world, but understand it too. SimpleCV is written in Python, and it's free to use. It runs on Mac, Windows, and Ubuntu Linux, and it's licensed under the BSD license. Features 4 Convenient "Superpack" installation for rapid deployment Feature detection and discrimination of Corners, Edges, Blobs, and Barcodes Filter and sort image features by their location, color, quality, and/or size An integrated iPython interactive shell makes developing code easy Image manipulation and format conversion Capture and process video streams from Kinect, Webcams, Firewire, IP Cams, or even mobile phones New (and only) book! 5 Learn how to build your own computer vision (CV) applications quickly and easily with SimpleCV. You can access the book online through the Safari collection of the ITESM CEM Digital Library.
