Looking for OpenCV tutorial

Question

Does anyone know some good easy to learn openCV c/c++ tutorial you can recommend? I tried Google, but I wasn't very satisfied with results.

Solution 1

OpenCV has recently provided a list of books they recommend.

Other interesting materials:

• There's a great introduction to OpenCV at Gady Agam's introduction to OpenCV.

• Noah Kuntz OpenCV tutorials are OK. It covers image manipulation, data types, image processing, camera stuff and several other topics.

• There's also the official OpenCV Tutorials, provided by the OpenCV folks themselves.

• Also you can find some good Opencv C++ Examples here to get started.

Solution 2

This is a very simple tutorial with all necessary knowledge of libraries and data structures. http://opencv.itseez.com/doc/tutorials/tutorials.html

Solution 3

Nashruddin's OpenCV tutorials such as eye tracking and beginner tutorials. http://nashruddin.com/tag/opencv

OpenCV tutorials such as object detection, face recognition and cross-compiling. http://www.computer-vision-software.com/blog/

You must know that OpenCV provides an API for C programmers and another with the same features for C++. It's your choice.

The book covers version 1.X, in version 2.X there are some changes in the API.

The book also presents some theory snippets, useful for a deeper understanding about what the procedures are doing under the covers.

A 2nd edition of "Learning OpenCV" is coming and it will contain stuff about OpenCV 2.x, which (I find) is much better structured and a lot easier to handle.

Nothing there. Could you please update the link?

Itseez no longer exists, not even a zombie web site. They were bought by Intel. newsroom.intel.com/editorials/…
