OpenCV Background Subtraction sample code

Dear Peter

Here is your answer.
I hope this posting & source code help to you.
And This page also is good explain to use background subtraction.
http://docs.opencv.org/master/d1/dc5/tutorial_background_subtraction.html#gsc.tab=0

This is simple code for example background subtraction.

The input is cam video.
Before get video frame, source code set some options.
MOG2, ROI, and morphology

in while, blur is option for reduce noise,
And morphology is also option.
As your project purpose and camera environment, you add more pre-processing.

But I don't add labeling code, normally do labeling processing after background subtration, because blob selecting(valid size or not), blob counting, interpretation of blob.

Thank you.
