My first experience with OpenCV

OpenCV is an opensource library for computer vision. It is available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/opencvlibrary/

With the help of some of the internet samples, i tried to play around with OpenCV from past two days. And here is one such application. It actually plays an AVI file.


You can find a nice tutorial on OpenCV at http://www.site.uottawa.ca/~laganier/tutorial/opencv+directshow/cvision.htm

Here is a glimpse of how my application will look like.



Hope it gives some insights to others who are interested in computer vision.

Cubicles in Indian IT companies...




Let us break the cubicle culture...

The way we behave in a crowd or in solitude is totally different from the way we behave in a place surrounded by few known people... 

In the first case, we become carefree and tend to break all sorts of barriers... 

In the second case, we restrict ourselves to some extent... in the first case when we break free, we may create something new, do something highly innovative... 

however, it's just not possible in the second case...

hence I believe to get some Aha-product from our IT companies from #bharat, we must first break the cubicle culture that exists now and let the developers become care-free...

only when we unshackle the creator from all sorts of rules and regulations, the magic happens.

the #tandava dance was done without any written or prepared script or rhythm as such...

spontaneity and freedom are the first and only needs of a creator.
