OpenCV Python! Where to start?

Once you've done that, then I recommend reading various FIRST-related image processing whitepapers and related code (search ChiefDelphi for these), to get a feel for what types of techniques you can use to accomplish the tasks you need to accomplish.

You may find that GRIP is a useful tool (I haven't used it, but it looks promising) to experiment with image processing techniques and such. In particular, screensteps has a walkthrough on how to do image processing for the 2016 game using GRIP.

Thank you. I've poked around with grip would you do the same processes as grip pip line? (Resize -> HSV/HSL -> Find Contours -> Filter Controus -> Pusblish to network table)

What is the difference between HSV and HSL?
