December Python Pune meetup 2015 was held at Castalia Labs, Pune (India) on 19th Dec, 2015. It was a full day workshop on Computer Vision - Playing with Camera and Images using Python. Around 15-20 people attended this meetup.
The workshop was divided into small topics followed by a series of small tasks.
Before the start of the workshop, the following packages needs to be installed:
- opencv
- numpy
- matplotlib
- ipython
- mpldatacursor
Finally, Jemshid started the workshop with the introduction of Opencv and explained:
- Read a photo from webcam and display it.
- Read an image in terms of pixels stored as a multi-dimensional numpy array.
- Understand the boolean logic over numpy array.
- Filtering the pixels by using RGB values.
- Filtering a particular object through grayscaling the images.
- Continuously capturing images and filtering them according to static filter applied and displaying it using matplotlib.
- Difference between Computer Vision and Image processing
Below is the list of tasks we performed:
- Read a photo from webcam and display it.
- Segment out green pixels from a yellow color.
- Filter ball only.
- See the captured result in a loop
At the end of the workshop, we have a general discussions around Open Source Python Projects and about upcoming meetups.
Thanks to Jemshid and his team for hosting the wonderful workshop and thanks to Castalia Labs for the venue.
