Color Spaces
Explore the concept of color spaces in image processing and understand how to convert images between BGR, grayscale, HSV, LAB, and RGB formats using OpenCV's cv2.cvtColor() method in Python. This lesson will help you manipulate image colors effectively for various computer vision applications.
What is a color space?
A color space is a specific organization of color. It is a system of representing an array of pixel colors. There are several color spaces, such as BGR, grayscale, HSV, LAB, and many more. Here, we’ll learn to convert our image from one color space to another.
Convert from BGR to grayscale
Note: OpenCV reads the images in BGR format.
To convert the image to grayscale, we use the ...
