On my last tutorial, we explored how to control a Pan/Tilt Servo device in order to position a PiCam. Now we will use our device to help the camera to automatically tracking color objects…
This is my first experience with OpenCV and I must confess, I am in love with this fantastic “Open Source Computer Vision Library”.
OpenCV is free for both academic and commercial use. It has C++, C, Python and Java interfaces and supports Windows, Linux, Mac OS, iOS and, Android. On my series of OpenCV tutorials, we will be focusing on Raspberry Pi (so, Raspbian as OS) and Python. OpenCV was designed for computational efficiency and with a strong focus on real-time applications. So, it’s perfect for Physical computing projects!
