 The full source code is quite long (due to the controlling of the application via the command line
 arguments and performance measurement). Therefore, to avoid cluttering up these sections with those
 you'll find here only the functions itself.

 Template matching is a technique for finding areas of an image that match (are similar) to a
 template image (patch).
 
+While the patch must be a rectangle it may be that not all of the

+that should be used to find the match.

 ### How does it work?

 -   In practice, we use the function @ref cv::minMaxLoc to locate the highest value (or lower,
     depending of the type of matching method) in the *R* matrix.
 
+### How does the mask work?
+- If masking is needed for the match, three components are required:
+
+    -#  **Source image (I):** The image in which we expect to find a match to the template image
+    -#  **Template image (T):** The patch image which will be compared to the template image
+    -#  **Mask image (M):** The mask, a grayscale image that masks the template
+
+
+-   Only two matching methods currently accept a mask: CV_TM_SQDIFF and CV_TM_CCORR_NORMED (see
+    below for explanation of all the matching methods available in opencv).
+
+
+-   The mask must have the same dimensions as the template
+
+
+-   The mask should have a CV_8U or CV_32F depth and the same number of channels
+    as the template image. In CV_8U case, the mask values are treated as binary,
+    i.e. zero and non-zero. In CV_32F case, the values should fall into [0..1]
+    range and the template pixels will be multiplied by the corresponding mask pixel
+    values. Since the input images in the sample have the CV_8UC3 type, the mask
+    is also read as color image.
