Introduction to OpenCV: A Beginner's Guide to Computer Vision

👁️Computer vision is the way of teaching intelligence to machines and making them see things like humans.

🌐OpenCV is a cross-platform library that provides programming functions for real-time computer vision.

🤖Computer vision involves analyzing images to produce useful information, enabling applications like self-driving cars and image recognition.

🐍OpenCV can be used with multiple programming languages, including C++, Python, and more.

💻Numpy, a numerical operations library, is often used in conjunction with OpenCV for image processing.
