Learn to build exciting Computer Vision applications.
Standard Retail Price: $117

Have you ever wondered how Instagram filters work?

Or, how computers perform face detection in crowds?

Are you curious how virtual meeting applications blur the background or replace the background with other images?

How do self-driving cars navigate safely in a busy city environment?

Also, isn’t it amazing how the ball is tracked with such accuracy in televised sporting events such as Tennis, Soccer, and Basketball?

If we’ve piqued your curiosity then this course is what you need. Learn about topics in Computer Vision such as Object Tracking, Augmented Reality, Face Detection, Optical Flow, Human Pose Estimation and many more.

Unlike many Computer Vision courses available online, this hands-on course approaches Computer Vision more practically, experientially and intuitively. All you need is a working knowledge of the Python programming language. And, if you are not confident about your Python skills, we will direct you to some of the best-curated resources on Python, so that you come up to speed with Python in the shortest possible time.

In short, beginners, coding enthusiasts, start-up owners, Tony Stark fans – everyone is welcome to this introductory course.

This course includes advanced topics like:

– Super Resolution Using OpenCV

– Deploying Applications On The Cloud

– Build Gesture Based Applications Using Facial Landmarks

OpenCV is the largest and the most popular Computer Vision library in the world. It is utilized by thousands of companies, products and devices, and is tested for scalability and performance every single day. 

We, at OpenCV.org, are on a mission to educate a global workforce. We have been offering very comprehensive online courses in Computer Vision to professionals, job-seekers and enthusiasts from over 100 countries.

The unique curriculum offered in this course is aimed at providing you with a solid foundation in the field of Computer Vision. We will take great pride in each and everyone who completes it successfully. Upon completion of the course, we will award you with a digital certificate from OpenCV.org. You can showcase it across your social profiles and give a kickstart to your career and continued studies in the field of Computer Vision.
