Cropping Multiple Lens film photos with OpenCV
(5 Minutes)
By: Josh Martin
Experience Level: Intermediate

Hello,

I love film cameras. Especially multiple lens film cameras that take photos all at once or in a sequence. The true pain is getting my scans back from the film lab I use and a set of photos being put into one photo because of how the cameras take the photos in the first place.

In this talk I will show how to perfectly crop a set of images into multiple images even if the vary in size.
