The computer vision market is huge and continues to grow, and there is no standard API in this area. Today's computer vision software probably has the following three types:
1. Research code (slow, unstable, independent and incompatible with other libraries)
2. High cost commercial tools (such as Halcon, MATLAB+Simulink)
3. Some special solutions that rely on hardware (such as video surveillance, manufacturing control system, medical equipment) are the current situation. Standard APIs will simplify the development of computer vision programs and solutions. OpenCV is committed to becoming such a standard API.
OpenCV is committed to real world real-time applications, and its execution speed has been significantly improved through optimized C code writing, and it can obtain faster processing speed by purchasing Intel's IPP high-performance multimedia function library.
