Playing with OpenCV and Tesseract

I was looking through my Projects folder and found an old Python application using some OpenCV code. I pulled what I could use, rewrote it and created a little nice library called PyOCV.

It supports object detection, text detection (using Tesseract) and OpenCV Object-Oriented helper classses for easy window, settings and image/capture handling/manipulation (also histogram and other diagram creations).

PyOCV also includes a number of functions for image adjustments including contrast/brightnes, convert modes, scaling/re-sizing, etc.

The project comes with an example application demonstrations features.

NOTE: Under Development!

Ignore the Mplayer window — I was watching something
