       | It looks promising.
       | 
       | I like the way each algorithm is explained with minimal example
       | and demo images.
       | 
       | I'm looking for such a lightweight vision lib to embed simple
       | image manipulation programs on tiny ESP32-CAM boards.
       | 
       | OpenCV seems too heavy to integrate on such small devices.
       | 
       | So far, I've been able to develop simple image processing
       | programs with CImg[1] (simple filtering, image cropping, adding
       | text).
       | 
       | I'll try to spend some time exploring this SOD lib, thank you for
       | sharing.

       | Anything like this but for photo imaging manipulation?

       | Nevertheless, it looks interesting. It looks really nice for
       | embedded where you don't always have the GPU for compute.

       | 
       | Additionally, why in the world does a technical blog for a for-
       | profit company need ads?
