### 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:

* 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')
# Simple isn't it?
# 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.
```
