Building a Simple Edge Detection Web App with Python and OpenCV

Edge detection is essential in computer vision, helping to identify object boundaries within images. I recently developed a web application that allows users to upload images and apply edge detection using Python, OpenCV, and Flask.

Key Features of the Project:

• Technologies Used: Python, OpenCV, Flask, Bootstrap.
• Functionality:Upload images directly through the web interface.Apply Sobel and Canny edge detection algorithms.View and compare the original and processed images.

Snapshot of the Application:

Sample Result

What I Learned:

• Integrating Image Processing with Web Development: Combining OpenCV's capabilities with Flask to create an interactive application.
• User Interface Design: Utilizing Bootstrap to enhance the look and responsiveness of the app.

I've made the application available online. Feel free to try it out:
