Summary

In this chapter we introduced some basic data structures that we will often encounter. In particular, we met the OpenCV matrix structure and the all-important OpenCV image structure, IplImage. We considered both in some detail and found that the matrix and image structures are very similar: the functions used for primitive manipulations in one work equally well in the other.
