+"""The Open Computer Vision Library
+
+OpenCV is the Open Computer Vision library, an open source effort originally started
+by intel to provide computer vision algorithms for standard PC hardware.
+
+This wrapper was semi-automatically created from the C/C++ headers and therefore
+contains no Python documentation. Because all identifiers are identical to their
+C/C++ counterparts, you can consult the standard manuals that come with OpenCV.
+
+In detail, this python package contains four sub-modules:
+
+  cv             core components (cxcore and cv)
+  ml             machine learning
+  highgui        simple user interface, video and image I/O
+  adaptors       pure python module offering conversion to numpy/scipy matrices 
+                 and PIL (python imaging library) images
+  matlab_syntax  pure python module offering syntax that is similar to Matlab
+                 for those who switched
+
+All methods and data types from cv, ml and adaptors are automatically imported into 
+the opencv namespace. Contents from highgui and matlab_syntax must be explicitly 
+imported - to avoid conflicts with other UI toolkits and the python matlab interface.
