Thou shalt programme
A question I got a lot after writing this post quite some time ago was “How to pass a processed image from OpenCV back to Unity?!” Obviously, that tutorial described just the way to pass images from Unity to C# (because of the nature of what it needed to do) and my answers in the …

This is something that is very commonly searched but not easily found. So, as a reference for myself and anyone who might need it, I have shared the prebuilt OpenCV libraries for MinGW in this post, namely OpenCV 4.1.0 for MinGW 7.3.0 32-bit. Note: I’ve assumed that you already know how OpenCV is built but …

For a number of different reasons, you might want/need to build OpenCV from scratch instead of using the pre-built and official libraries provided by OpenCV. Since you’ve ended up reading this post, there’s a good chance that you already know why you might need to do this, but if you don’t, you can check out …

Update 2019-05-25: Added notes to help with changes and possible issues caused with more recent versions of CMake. Over the years I have written quite a few guides and tutorials that describe building OpenCV from sources for Windows, however they were mostly done using the GUI. It means you’d have to be using CMake GUI …

In this post I will describe the process of of reading, performing any arbitrary image processing algorithm and displaying an image read from a video file, camera or RTSP feed using OpenCV , and the same time keeping the user interface (created using Qt) responsive.
Here is what you need to add to your Qt qmake projects to be able to add and use OpenCV 3.4.1 default set of libraries. I usually add them into a separate *.pri file and include that in my *.pro files to avoid repetition, but that’s up to you. Well, here it is:
[Updated this post on April 04, 2019, to make sure this tutorial is compatible with OpenCV 4.x and TensorFlow 2.0] In this post we’re going to learn how to create an image classifier application with a proper GUI that allows the users to choose a camera or a video file as the input and classify …

Following a number of questions that appear before me every now and then, I decided to write a post about using CMake to create and build projects using Qt5 and OpenCV 3. For those of you who are qmake fans, using CMake doesn’t mean you can’t use Qt Creator to create and build your projects. …

In this post I’ll describe how to combine the power of Qt and OpenCV to develop a good looking and fun object detector. The method explained here contains quite a few things to learn and use in your current and future projects, so let’s get started.
It is one thing to become an author, but it is totally another level of joy, to be published by my most favorite publisher in the computer science industry. So, it is with great pleasure that today I can announce that my upcoming book about OpenCV and Qt is available for preordering on Amazon, and …
