OpenCV Tutorial 9: Shape Detection and Color Filtering in Emgu CV 

Object detection and segmaentation is the most important and challenging fundamental task of computer vision.  It is a critical part in many applications such as image search, image auto-annotation and scene understanding. However it is still an open problem due to the complexity of object classes and images.

The easiest way to detect and segment an object from an image is the color based methods . The colors in the object and the background should have a significant color difference in order to segment objects sucessfully using color based methods.
