This is the code repository for Raspberry Pi Computer Vision Programming - Second Edition, published by Packt.
Design and implement computer vision applications with Raspberry Pi, OpenCV, and Python 3
Raspberry Pi is one of the popular single-board computers of our generation. All the major image processing and computer vision algorithms and operations can be implemented easily with OpenCV on Raspberry Pi. This updated second edition is packed with cutting-edge examples and new topics, and covers the latest versions of key technologies such as Python 3, Raspberry Pi, and OpenCV. This book will equip you with the skills required to successfully design and implement your own OpenCV, Raspberry Pi, and Python-based computer vision projects.
This book covers the following exciting features:
- Set up a Raspberry Pi for computer vision applications
- Perform basic image processing with libraries such as NumPy, Matplotlib, and OpenCV
- Demonstrate arithmetic, logical, and other operations on images
- Work with a USB webcam and the Raspberry Pi Camera Module
- Implement low-pass filters and high-pass filters and understand their applications in image processing
