Intro
OpenCV (Open Source Computer Vision Library) is a library of programming functions mainly aimed at real time computer vision, developed by Intel and now supported by Willow Garage. OpenCV is free to use under Open Source BSD license. OpenCV mainly focuses on real-time image processing. Being multi platform one can use openCV on linux as well as windows platform and with c++ as well as python.
OpenCV provides very good platform for developing robotics applications using image processing. One can also use Image processing toolkit from Matlab but I personally found OpenCV much faster that Matlab image processing toolkit.
Getting OpenCV
Latest Version of OpenCV can be downloaded from sourceforge using this link: http://sourceforge.net/projects/opencvlibrary/files/
Installation guides for various platforms are available here:

Hi...
ReplyDeleteI am new to opencv..
I want to plot minimum enclosing circle using function cvEnclosingCircle().
After getting values of center and radius how the circle with that center and radius can be drawn???
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.
cvCircle function is available in Opencv with C to draw circle. You can find more refence in the link below.
