### Opencv

OpenCV (Open Source Computer Vision) is a library of programming functions mainly aimed at real-time computer vision. 
Originally developed by Intel, it was later supported by Willow Garage then Itseez (which was later acquired by Intel). 
Opencv currently supports wide variety of languages like, C++, Python, Java etc

#### Installation
Please refer to these articles for installation of OpenCV on your computer.
* Windows Installation Instructions: 
<https://opencv-python-tutroals.readthedocs.io/en/latest/py_tutorials/py_setup/py_setup_in_windows/py_setup_in_windows.html#install-opencv-python-in-windows>

* Mac Installation Instructions (High Sierra):

* Linux Installation Instructions (Ubuntu 18.04):

### Here we will be focusing on python implementation of OpenCV

```
# Reading image in OpenCV
import cv2
img = cv2.imread('cat.jpg')

# Displaying the image
# imshow() function is used to display the image
cv2.imshow('Image',img)
# Your first arguement is the title of the window and second parameter is image
# If you are getting error, Object Type None, your image path may be wrong. Please recheck the pack to the image
cv2.waitKey(0)
# waitKey() is a keyboard binding function and takes arguement in milliseconds. For GUI events you MUST use waitKey() function.

# Writing an image
cv2.imwrite('catgray.png',img)
# first arguement is the file name and second is the image

# Convert image to grayscale
gray_image = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)

# Capturing Video from Webcam
cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
#0 is your camera, if you have multiple camera, you need to enter their id
while(True):
    # Capturing frame-by-frame
    _, frame = cap.read()
    cv2.imshow('Frame',frame)
    # When user presses q -> quit
    if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
        break
# Camera must be released
cap.release()

# Playing Video from file
cap = cv2.VideoCapture('movie.mp4')
while(cap.isOpened()):
    _, frame = cap.read()
    # Play the video in grayscale
    gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
    cv2.imshow('frame',gray)
    if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
        break
cap.release()

# Drawing The Line in OpenCV
# cv2.line(img,(x,y),(x1,y1),(color->r,g,b->0 to 255),thickness)
cv2.line(img,(0,0),(511,511),(255,0,0),5)

# Drawing Rectangle
# cv2.rectangle(img,(x,y),(x1,y1),(color->r,g,b->0 to 255),thickness)
# thickness = -1 used for filling the rectangle
cv2.rectangle(img,(384,0),(510,128),(0,255,0),3)

# Drawing Circle
cv2.circle(img,(xCenter,yCenter), radius, (color->r,g,b->0 to 255), thickness)
cv2.circle(img,(200,90), 100, (0,0,255), -1)

# Drawing Ellipse
cv2.ellipse(img,(256,256),(100,50),0,0,180,255,-1)

# Adding Text On Images
cv2.putText(img,"Hello World!!!", (x,y), cv2.FONT_HERSHEY_SIMPLEX, 2, 255)


cv2.destroyAllWindows()
# destroyAllWindows() destroys all windows. If you wish to destroy specific window pass the exact name of window you created.
