Topic: A histogram is a graph containing the cumulative intensity of every pixel value in an image. It is a tool of great importance in image analysis and colour monitoring, as any changes in, say, brightness or contrast, are immediately noticeable in the histogram.

Exercise: Create a Python script file and perform the following tasks:

  • Import the os, OpenCV, SKVideo, numpy, and matplotlib.pyplot libraries.
  • Open a video stream.
  • Isolate the values of each colour channel for every frame.
  • Generate the histograms for each colour channel using the isolated values for each frame, save the histograms and present them alongside the original video.
