As a technology widely used for information transmission and identification, QR code has the advantages of fast identification speed and high error tolerance. This article discusses how to use the OpenCV library to achieve fast and accurate recognition of QR codes, and demonstrates the technical depth through multiple code examples.
As a matrix barcode, QR code is widely used in various fields, such as product traceability, mobile payment, event check-in, etc. The rapid and accurate recognition of QR codes is crucial for information transmission and application implementation. This article will focus on the QR code recognition technology based on the OpenCV library, and demonstrate its technical depth and practicality through multiple code examples.
OpenCV library introduction:
OpenCV (Open Source Computer Vision Library) is an open source computer vision library that provides many functions and tools for image processing and computer vision tasks. OpenCV supports multiple programming languages, such as C++, Python, etc., and provides a wealth of image processing and computer vision algorithms.
QR code recognition principle:
The basic principle of QR code recognition is to find the location and information of the QR code through image processing and analysis. QR codes usually have specific identification patterns and masks, and the recognition process involves steps such as image preprocessing, edge detection, corner detection and decoding.
QR code identification code example:
Quick recognition of QR codes can be achieved using the OpenCV library. The following is a sample code for QR code recognition using Python and OpenCV:
import cv2
from pyzbar import pyzbar
def decode_qr_code(image):
gray = cv2.cvtColor(image, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
