Blend the power of Qt with OpenCV to build cross-platform computer vision applications Developers have been using OpenCV library to develop computer vision applications for a long time. However, they now need a more effective tool to get the job done and in a much better and modern way. Qt is one of the major frameworks available for this task at the moment. This book will teach you to develop applications with the combination of OpenCV 3 and Qt5, and how to create cross-platform computer vision applications. We'll begin by introducing Qt, its IDE, and its SDK. Next you'll learn how to use the OpenCV API to integrate both tools, and see how to configure Qt to use OpenCV. You'll go on to build a full-fledged computer vision application throughout the book. Later, you'll create a stunning UI application using the Qt widgets technology, where you'll display the images after they are processed in an efficient way. At the end of the book, you'll learn how to convert OpenCV Mat to Qt QImage. You'll also see how to efficiently process images to filter them, transform them, detect or track objects as well as analyze video. You'll become better at developing OpenCV applications. This book is for readers interested in building computer vision applications. Intermediate knowledge of C++ programming is expected. Even though no knowledge of Qt5 and OpenCV 3 is assumed, if you're familiar with these frameworks, you'll benefit.
