Course Description

Summary

In the first two weeks, we'll learn about how our eyes and brain work together to make sense of what we see. We'll also explore ways to make computer programs better at understanding images by changing them in different ways. We'll try out some of these changes ourselves using a computer program called Python with a special tool called OpenCV. Moving on, we'll dive into how we can tell how far away things are and make cool illusions like the ones you might have seen in magic shows. We'll also try to recreate some of these illusions using Python and OpenCV. After that, we'll talk about how bright or dark things are and how we can figure out what color something really is. We'll also learn about another illusion that tricks our brains into seeing things differently, and we'll try to make it happen on our own using Python and OpenCV. Next up, we'll explore how things can look different depending on how they're shaped or positioned. We'll look at a famous illusion involving a room that plays tricks on our eyes, and we'll try to recreate it with moving objects using Python and OpenCV. Then, we'll talk about how things can seem like they're moving even when they're not. We'll learn about different kinds of movement illusions and try to make some of our own with Python and OpenCV. In the final weeks, we'll learn how to get images ready for computer programs to understand them better. We'll practice drawing lines and shapes on images and learn how to describe what's in them. We'll also show off the projects we've been working on and talk about how we can make them even better.
