OpenCV is more secure thanks to GitHub's Secure Open Source Fund
Greetings from San Francisco. In this edition of the OpenCV Newsletter you'll hear about OpenCV's participation in the GitHub Secure Open Source Fund, your reminder to fill out the OpenCV Community Survey , and more.
OpenCV’s Participation in the GitHub Secure Open Source Fund
Earlier this year OpenCV was selected to be part of the GitHub Secure Open Source Fund , which provides maintainers with financial support to participate in a three-week program educating them on the latest tooling and methods for ensuring the safety of Open Source Software projects.
We are honored to be part of the 71 other projects that have been helped by the fund so far! In this program OpenCV was alongside familiar projects many of us use every day such as Ollama , scikit-learn , Node.js , OAuthlib , YAML , Matplotlib , Jupyter , Electron , and Oh My Zsh .
Recording Available: OpenCV Community Spotlight August 2025
On last week's episode we turned the focus to the worldwide community of creators and hobbyists that make awesome OpenCV stuff. Phil chatted with the founder of TruffleAI , and Piotr from Roboflow showed us the awesome power of supervisor for sports analytics. Got a cool project of your own? Send it to us or post it on Hackster and you may be featured next time!

The 2025 OpenCV Community Survey
It's time for this year's OpenCV Community Survey . It's a short, focused online survey open to the entire OpenCV community that will take just a few minutes to complete. Your answers to the questions presented here are important to the future of OpenCV.
Please help the OpenCV project and take the survey. If you use OpenCV for work or play, as a developer or an integrator, as a hobbyist or a student or a professional, we want to hear from you! Your responses will help inform what OpenCV focuses on in the coming year and helps us identify and choose new partners to work with. We'll keep the survey open for a few more weeks. Click the button and make your voice heard!
