object traking within a video file

I have an intresting project assigned to me , and I would like if you can provide me with an idea of what I should look for and read and learn.

(Im not asking for solutions )

I have to make a windows application using C# that have an option to load a video file (avi or any) and then the application detect a specific color or an object such as a ball or a face or whatever.

I heard there is a library called opencv and Im learning a lot from it .

I would like to learn more and more , but I want to avoid wasting my time on somthing old or not applicable.

please advice

thank you

    If you’re new to image processing, you’ll enjoy this project. What we’ll attempt to achieve in this tutorial is tracking the location of a coloured object in an image. In our case, it’ll be a yellow colored ball.
