Opencv Webcam Project

We can build very interesting applications using the live video stream from the webcam. OpenCV provides a video capture object which handles everything related to opening and closing of the webcam. All we need to do is create that object and keep reading frames from it.

Python provides various libraries for image and video processing. One of them is OpenCV. OpenCV is a vast library that helps in providing various functions for image and video operations. With OpenCV, we can capture a video from the camera. It lets you create a video capture object which is helpful to capture videos through webcam and then you may perform desired operations on that video.
