## What it is
A Processing library wrapping OpenCV's official Java bindings to provide beginner-friendly computer vision functions within the Processing creative coding environment. It supports face detection, image filtering, brightness/contrast adjustment, and access to the full OpenCV API.

## Use cases
- detect faces in images with processing
- do computer vision in processing sketches
- apply threshold and blur filters to images
- adjust brightness and contrast of images
- process live camera feed in processing
- use opencv from java creative coding projects

## When to choose
- you're building Processing sketches that need computer vision
- you want beginner-friendly wrappers around OpenCV
- you need face detection or basic image filtering in Processing

## When to avoid
- you need Android support
- you need the latest OpenCV features or a modern OpenCV version
- you're not working in the Processing environment

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: computer-vision, image-processing
- domain: computer-vision, image-processing, graphics
- platform: windows, cross-platform
- tags: processing, opencv, creative-coding, face-detection, java, macos, linux
