Opencv Mat





OpenCV has been around since 2001. In those days the library was built around a C interface and to store the image in the memory they used a C structure called IplImage

  1. C interface
  2. Store image
  3. IplImage
  4. Memory leakage issues.
  5. Memory leakage issues  over come by C++

Luckily C++ came around and introduced the concept of classes making easier for the user through automatic memory management
