As I’ve mentioned before, my posts about computer vision are the most viewed articles on this site. Not a day goes by that I don’t receive 20+ emails asking for more information about computer vision. Even though the majority of the computer vision articles on this site discuss OpenCV only, there are all kinds of other frameworks that augment computer vision development. There are also all kinds of other topics under the science of “computer vision” that I don’t discuss on this site. Therefore, I have decided to put together another website that will be completely dedicated to the science of computer vision and all that it has to offer. Currently, I only have articles that I have copied from this site. But, at some point, the new site will be where I post all things computer vision related. The new site does not currently allow for comments or new user registrations. But, that too will soon follow. For now, I just wanted to mention the new site so that everyone will know of its existence and hopefully provide some feedback about it. If you have anything related to computer vision you would like to get posted on the site, feel free to send it to me through the contact page on the site and I’ll see that it gets posted. Once I get the site setup for others to join, you’ll be able to post your own articles, ask questions, and begin discussions. Until then, I would like to introduce to you LearnComputerVision.com (http://www.learncomputervision.com)!

I want to take a few minutes to talk about a new toy I recently bought. It’s a miniature wireless bluetooth keyboard that works with iPad, iPhone, Android cellphones and tablets, Windows Mobile, Symbian, and other devices that allow input from a bluetooth device. I came across this little guy on one of those daily deal sites and decided to pick one up to see what it was about. The form factor is amazing. It’s a little smaller than my Droid Razr and a lot lighter. It has a keyboard with almost every key you can imagine. The only keys it doesn’t have are F1 – F12. However, it does provide a function “Fn” key that allows you to access other keys such as volume controls and playback controls (play, pause, stop, fastforward, rewind).

Basic Comparison
PHP is a server-side programming language, used for creating dynamic web applications. It was released in the year 1994. In the present world enormous numbers of websites are developed on PHP. PHP is usually written inside an HTML page, but with *.php extension.
Ruby was invented one year before PHP, i.e. in the year 1993, but it was officially launched in the year 2005. The main target behind this invention was to create a new language which is stronger than Perl and based on Object Oriented Programming even more than Python. But Ruby is not currently a standalone language; it is tied with Rail Framework.

I have something to share with you that you are going to love! Have you ever wondered what it would take to create your own programming language? Most people that have asked that question have usually given up on the idea of creating their own programming language because they believe it’s going to be way too hard or involve way too much programming. But, believe it or not, it’s actually really simple to do thanks to a great programmer named Marc-Andre Cournoyer. Marc-Andre has put together an amazing ebook for anyone that wants to create their own programming language or for anyone that wants to better understand how programming languages work. Unlike most of the stuff on my website, this ebook is not free. However, it is DEFINITELY worth the $17.95.
The ebook walks you through everything you need to know about creating your own programming language. It covers everything from creating parsers to interpreters. Heck, it even shows you how to build your own compiler. All of the example code in the ebook is written in Python, making it extremely easy to follow along. Since this is a digital download, it also includes all of the source code from the ebook including the new programming language you will create through each step of the book which Marc-Andre calls the “Awesome” programming language. Awesome is a mix of Ruby syntax and Python’s indentation.
So, if you’re interested in creating your own programming language, want a better understanding of programming languages, or just want a nice little read, you should seriously buy a copy of this ebook. The download includes the ebook in the following formats: epub, mobi, pdf. By the way, this ebook is what inspired Jeremy Ashkenas to create CoffeeScript.

Over the last several months, I have shown you all kinds of cool ways you can use OpenCV with C# to create some really cool applications. Today, at the request of a reader, I want to begin showing you how to create applications using OpenCV and Python. If you’ve ever taken a look at the OpenCV documentation with Python, you will know that it’s lacking in many ways. So, I want to take a few minutes and give you a crash course with getting OpenCV and Python to play nicely. Let’s begin.
