The document discusses an introductory session on computer vision and image processing. It covers installing OpenCV, concepts of pixels and image processing techniques like thresholding, erosion and dilation. It also discusses image transformations including rotation, translation and warping. Finally, it introduces the concept of feature extraction and some common tools used for feature extraction like histograms, Histogram of Oriented Gradients and SIFT. It summarizes that the current session covered image processing and transformations while the next session will focus on machine learning basics and training a classifier for digit recognition.
