Abstract
In this chapter we present and discuss the basic computer vision concepts, techniques, and mathematical background that we use in this book. The chapter introduces image notations, the concept of integral images, colour space conversions, the Hough transform for line detection, camera coordinate systems, and stereo computer vision.
