Does anyone know where can I find object detection sample code in OpenCV?
I want to track an object with a specified clolor.
Thanks

Note: For more information, refer to Introduction to OpenCV. Object Detection is a computer technology related to computer vision, image processing, and deep learning that deals with detecting instances of objects in images and videos. We will do object detection in this article using something known as haar cascades.
OpenCV is the huge open-source library for computer vision, machine learning, and image processing and now it plays a major role in real-time operation which is very important in today’s systems. By using it, one can process images and videos to identify objects, faces, or even the handwriting of a human. This article focuses on detecting objects.
After you installed the OpenCV package, open the python IDE of your choice and import OpenCV. Since we want to detect the objects in real-time, we will be using the webcam feed. Use the below code to initiate the webcam. As mentioned earlier, OpenCV has various pre-trained HAAR classifiers stored as XML files.
Object Detection is the process of using an image and or video feed as your input through your model, and that model detects any objects. This can happen with many different object detection methods.
There are bunch of examples in OpenCV distribution (samples folder).
There you can find camshiftdemo.c — exactly what you searching for.
