Sobel Operator

The document provides Python code examples for various edge detection techniques using the OpenCV library, including the Sobel operator, Prewitt operator, Canny edge detector, and Laplacian operator. Each method reads an image, processes it to detect edges, and displays both the original and processed images. The code demonstrates the application of different convolution kernels and methods for edge detection in grayscale images.
