Summary


So much can happen in a single mission! We trained an OpenCV/NumPy/SciPy histogram classifier, performed Bing image searches, built a wxPython app, and used PyInstaller to bundle it all for redistribution to Russia with love (or, indeed, to any destination with any sentiment). At this point, you are well primed to create other Python applications that combine computer vision, web requests, and a GUI.

For our next mission, we will dig our claws deeper into OpenCV and computer vision by building a fully functional cat recognizer!
