OpenCV vs Thumbor: What are the differences?

What is OpenCV? Open Source Computer Vision Library. OpenCV was designed for computational efficiency and with a strong focus on real-time applications. Written in optimized C/C++, the library can take advantage of multi-core processing. Enabled with OpenCL, it can take advantage of the hardware acceleration of the underlying heterogeneous compute platform.

What is Thumbor? Allows users to store and load images from anywhere needed. It is a smart imaging service. It enables on-demand crop, resizing and flipping of images. It allows users to store and load images from anywhere needed. It's really simple to implement a new loader or storage.

OpenCV and Thumbor belong to "Image Processing and Management" category of the tech stack.

Some of the features offered by OpenCV are:

  • C++, C, Python and Java interfaces and supports Windows, Linux, Mac OS, iOS and Android
  • More than 47 thousand people of user community and estimated number of downloads exceeding 7 million
  • Usage ranges from interactive art, to mines inspection, stitching maps on the web or through advanced robotics

On the other hand, Thumbor provides the following key features:

  • For developers
  • For operations
  • For designers

OpenCV is an open source tool with 38.2K GitHub stars and 28.4K GitHub forks. Here's a link to OpenCV's open source repository on GitHub.

    What are some alternatives to OpenCV and Thumbor?
    TensorFlow
    TensorFlow is an open source software library for numerical computation using data flow graphs. Nodes in the graph represent mathematical operations, while the graph edges represent the multidimensional data arrays (tensors) communicated between them. The flexible architecture allows you to deploy computation to one or more CPUs or GPUs in a desktop, server, or mobile device with a single API.
    CImg
    It mainly consists in a (big) single header file CImg.h providing a set of C++ classes and functions that can be used in your own sources, to load/save, manage/process and display generic images.
    OpenGL
    It is a cross-language, cross-platform application programming interface for rendering 2D and 3D vector graphics. The API is typically used to interact with a graphics processing unit, to achieve hardware-accelerated rendering.
    PyTorch
    PyTorch is not a Python binding into a monolothic C++ framework. It is built to be deeply integrated into Python. You can use it naturally like you would use numpy / scipy / scikit-learn etc.
    OpenCL
    It is the open, royalty-free standard for cross-platform, parallel programming of diverse processors found in personal computers, servers, mobile devices and embedded platforms. It greatly improves the speed and responsiveness of a wide spectrum of applications in numerous market categories including gaming and entertainment titles, scientific and medical software, professional creative tools, vision processing, and neural network training and inferencing.
