• Read the csv file according to the names
• The function color_recognizer is called when we double click and it returns the the color name and it's RGB value
• The function mouse_click defines the callback to the double click of the mouse over a certain area of the image
• Show the image in a window and enabling the double click of the mouse
• Showing the window untill not quit
  • Create a rectangle that will show the name and RGB value of a color
  • Create a string to display, the color name and it's value
  • Put the string over the image
  • If the image or display is light, show the string in black color
  • Close the window if escape key is pressed
• At last release all the windows. And boom!
