DESCRIPTION:
MMA said Three Stars. Its a good book for beginner to learn about OpenCV. Nicely structured into what to do and how it works Having read the negative reviews of this book I was impressed at it when I got it (Kindle edition). Nicely structured into what to do and how it works the book carries you through a lot of case studies in computer vision with openCV. I plan to use the book as an inspiration for a hobby robot project and need something to get me started fast and easy. I think the book does the job. Mingling around with the code, reading the explanations and some of the research papers should produce the wanted results I hope.The only critique I have is that the font of the code examples should be smaller in the Kindle edition.. "Don't buy itbad publishing, and extremely boring. Lacks context." according to Ryein Goddard. The first thing I disliked about this book was the description every where. For some reason it was listed as an OpenCV Don't buy itbad publishing, and extremely boring. Lacks context. The first thing I disliked about this book was the description every where. For some reason it was listed as an OpenCV 3 book. It isn't it only talks about OpenCV 2.The second thing I dislike about this book is the fact it doesn't have color, or even half decent images. It is kind of important to have good images in a computer vision book.The third thing I disliked about this book was the way everything was explained. It was all not in context. This very well could of just been a big listing of code and a few sentences. Hardly anything is in context at least in terms of other relative functions. The writing was very dull and . book.
