Hi,

This week you'll learn about Installing OpenCV on Windows.

OpenCV is a must for every budding and seasoned deep learning practitioner. The functionalities provided by OpenCV are wide-ranging, starting with simple image reading to full-fledged neural networks. 

This tutorial has been created specifically for our Windows users to show them how easy it is to configure their systems for using OpenCV. 

The big picture: As we have seen, many in our user base are Windows users. We have created a small easy-to-follow tutorial to install OpenCV on Windows systems. 

How it works:  OpenCV is easily pip-installable in your system. However, we will also show you how to compartmentalize your environments for different packages. 

Our thoughts: As already mentioned, OpenCV is a must-have for all deep learning practitioners. Hence, it is important to have an OpenCV configured system always ready. 

Yes, but: Needless to say, if you are new to OpenCV, then do not stop here. This is just the first step. 

Stay smart: We have covered numerous OpenCV functionalities in our blogs. Go check them out if you need a place to start.

P.S. You're ready to study deep learning and computer vision...but you don't know where to start.

What you need is a book that:
  1. Starts with the fundamentals and then builds up to advanced techniques
  2. Helps you learn how to successfully apply CV/DL to your own projects and datasets
  3. Provides an actual real person to support you and help you as you work through it and have questions
The good news is that book does exist — it's called Deep Learning for Computer Vision with Python.

Rishiraj Acharya, teacher at Stanford University, had this to say about the book:

While Sean Mackenzie, long-time PyImageSearch reader and customer said the following after I helped him through a tricky project:

"Thank you for the incredible customer service. It's amazing to know you care so much about providing great service rather than just putting out content and getting people to buy packages. It's obvious you care about the success of each one of your customers. I appreciate it."

I'd love to be able to help you on your CV/DL journey, just like I've helped Rishiraj, Sean, and tens of thousands of other PyImageSearch readers.

If you'd like to follow in their footsteps, I'd be happy to send you a PDF containing the Table of Contents and a few sample chapters to my deep learning book:
