I want to develop image processing projects using the OpenCV library. How can I implement basic image processing techniques, object detection or machine learning processes in my computer vision applications? Guide me on the basic functions I can use in my projects and how I can benefit from the standard infrastructure offered by this library.

Repository: https://github.com/opencv/opencv. Follow the official instructions in the README of this repository for setup and execution.

Before starting, check which OS we are on and if the necessary tools (e.g., Python, Node.js, Git, Docker) are installed. Install any missing ones step-by-step according to this system.

Create a new, empty folder to work in. Do not touch any files outside this folder and do not delete anything. Tell me what you are going to do in one sentence before running each command.

Tell me what I should see on the screen at the end of each step. If an error occurs, I will paste the error message to you exactly as it is, and we will fix it together.
