Open Computer Vision Library (OpenCV)

Introduction

Open Computer Vision Library (OpenCV) is a computer vision library originally developed by Intel. It is free for commercial and research use under a BSD license. The library is cross-platform, and runs on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, VCRT (Real-Time OS on Smart camera) and other embedded operating systems. It focuses mainly on real-time image processing, as such, if it finds Intel's Integrated Performance Primitives on the system, it will use these commercial optimized routines to accelerate itself.
