You can master Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and OpenCV - PyImageSearch
I publish a brand new Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and OpenCV tutorial every Monday at 10AM EST. Here you'll find my most recent tutorials and guides.
The 2nd edition of Practical Python and OpenCV + Case Studies is officially online! This 2nd edition is a MAJOR UPDATE to the book and includes: Hardcopy editions. I’ve wanted to offer Practical Python and OpenCV in print ever since…

Today marks the 100th blog post on PyImageSearch. 100 posts. It’s hard to believe it, but it’s true. When I started PyImageSearch back in January of 2014, I had no idea what the blog would turn into. I didn’t know…

Between myself and my father, Jemma, the super-sweet, hyper-active, extra-loving family beagle may be the most photographed dog of all time. Since we got her as a 8-week old puppy, to now, just under three years later, we have accumulated…

OpenCV can be a big, hard to navigate library, especially if you are just getting started learning computer vision and image processing. The release of OpenCV 3 has only further complicated matters, moving a few important functions around and even…

I think a better title for this blog post might be: How I lost a day of productivity to Ubuntu, virtual environments, matplotlib, and rendering backends. Over the weekend I was playing around with deep learning on my Ubuntu system…

You know what makes for a (not so) fun weekend? Reconfiguring and reinstalling OSX on your MacBook Pro. Apparently, the 13in MacBook Pro that I use when I’m traveling decided to shit the bed. No worries though, I use Carbon…

It was unavoidable — the OpenCV 3 release was bound to break backwards compatibility with some OpenCV 2.4.X functions: cv2.findContours and cv2.normalize come to mind right off the top of my head. So how do you ensure that your code…

A few weeks ago I introduced bat-country, my implementation of a lightweight, extendible, easy to use Python package for deep dreaming and inceptionism. The reception of the library was very good, so I decided that it would be interesting to…

Honestly, I love the Raspberry Pi for teaching computer vision — it is perhaps one of the best teaching tools to expose programmers, developers, and students to the world of computer vision. It’s great for hobbyists and garage-room hackers, as…
