OpenCV Python Tutorial #7 - Template Matching (Object Detection)
Welcome to another OpenCV tutorial! We'll be talking about template matching (object detection). In this video, we'll use an image of a soccer practice and use OpenCV to detect the soccer ball and find it's exact location. For example, the image of the ball will be our template, and we'll use OpenCV to match it.
