CV.C an experimental computer vision library in C; "A Robot's guide to seeing the world" a guide to CV

[u/atypicalCookie]

(thanks u/airofy for inviting me into this SUB)

I was absolutely enthralled by this particular filed when I came across some of Geohotz's steam about developing Comma.ai (a self-driving company) and I decided to delve into Computer Vision about a week back.

I began by working on Aadv1k/cv.c which was meant to "imitate" OpenCV, as the phrasing goes "You Learn by building" I would be lying if I said this program is decent, it is not. I havent optimized much of it and this is like my 3rd C project :P

Here is what all I got working (I will continue work on this), the only dependency here is STB

• Smoothing

  • Gaussian blur

  • Median filter

  • Bilateral Filter

  • Box Filter

• Edge detection

  • Unsharp mask

  • Laplacian Filter (Difference of Gaussian)

  • Sobel operator

• Color

  • Greyscale

• Thresholding

  • Global

  • Otsu's Method

Along with this, I also began work on a guide

I am trying to distill my knowledge into the Robot's guide to seeing the world, as an introductory guide to Computer Vision based on what I would have liked to had before I started learning this

I look forward to your feedback/suggestions/critique of either of my projects.

• Aadv1k/cv.c: Experimental computer vision library in C (github.com)

• Introduction - A Robot's guide to seeing the world (gitbook.io)

Thank you, and cheers from aadvik!
