A few weeks ago I did a blog post on how to install the dlib library on Ubuntu and macOS. Since Raspbian, the operating system that (most) Raspberry Pi users run is Debian-based (as is Ubuntu), the same install instructions can be used for Raspbian as Ubuntu… …however, there’s a catch. The Raspberry Pi 3 ships […]

I highly encourage you to take the time to install dlib on your system over the next couple of days. Starting next week we’ll […]
A guide to asking questions on the PyImageSearch blog
Over the past three years running PyImageSearch.com I have received and answered tens of thousands of questions from readers just like yourself who are interested in studying computer vision, OpenCV, and deep learning. Looking back on this time, I can say that the vast majority of the questions I have answered have been a real pleasure to […]

The fear of making a stupid mistake and saying something wrong in front of an auditorium filled with people was paralyzing — the pressure weighed on me and delivered a severe blow to my public speaking confidence. But after […]

I have some big news to announce today… Besides writing a ton of blog posts about computer vision, image processing, and image search engines, I’ve been behind the scenes, working on a second book. And you may be thinking, hey, didn’t you just finish up Practical Python and OpenCV? Yep. I did. Now, don’t get […]
