After reading and trying out this tutorial, you will learn how to use **snark** imaging utilities **cv-cat**, **cv-calc**, **image-from-csv**, and **image-to-csv**
- stream image data from camera or video
- do various image manipulations and apply various computer vision algorithms
- read and save images, image datasets, and image streams in various formats
- convert image streams from/to csv data
This tutorial covers only basics. Each **snark** imaging utility has extensive **--help** with examples.
As with other **comma** and **snark** utilities, **snark** imaging utilities were written as much as possible as a toolkit of primitives, which, when used in combination, cover vast number of practical use cases in image processing and computer vision.
Other tutorials may cover specific use cases and design recipes. If you have any question or suggestions about extra functionality or more tutorials, you are very welcome to create a ticket.
