python - OpenCV mat::convertTo in python

opencv, python

Solution

You can simply use Numpy functions for this.

eg :

res = np.float32(out)

scaling, you will have to do separately:

res = res*scaling_factor

Problem

Is there any function in the OpenCV python wrapper that does the same thing as Mat's convertTo method in OpenCV 2? I basically want to call this function in python ``` out.convertTo( out, CV_32F, 1.0/255, 0 ); ``` where out is a grayscale image. I have already made use of cv.ConvertScale by keeping my dst argument as type CV_32FC1, but I am trying to keep my python code as cv2 conformant as possible. Any clues?
