I was hoping to start looking into computer vision with the arduino I have, I was curious of what software I need/ could use.
Depending what Arduino you are talking about you will probably find it is not powerful enough to work with images, you may want to have a look at using an esp32cam.
Arduino has the Nicla Vision — Arduino Official Store
there are other boards like the Grove Vision AI Module V2 | Seeed Studio Wiki

arduino uno, and I'm guessing it would work the same for arduino mega
You won’t be able to run CV applications on those MCUs.
You probably need to look to more powerful boards or thing that’s made for CV.
(Maybe use UART to link them together.)
Do you know which software i can use
I've heard of open cv and i think pixy has their own software right?
You can't use open cv there. Those modules are really for modest AI/ML driven edge computing solutions.
With (micro)python, you could look at openmv, I've heard of what hey do but never used their products

OpenCV will run on any linux system, including the RPi Zero W or (better) RPi Zero W 2, which are smaller, cheaper and vastly more powerful than an Arduino Uno or Mega.
They even have camera connectors, and fairly high quality camera options.
