Computer Vision (CV)

Computer Vision, a domain of AI, helps machines
recognise objects, people, and patterns. It replicates
human sight and the cognitive ability to interpret visual
data. Computer Vision teaches computers to understand
and interpret images and videos.

It assists machines in recognising objects, people,
movements or scenes by analysing visual data obtained
from cameras, sensors, and software.

Computer Vision = Teaching computers how to “see” and “understand” pictures and videos

Factbot

CNNs (Convolutional Neural Networks) are the foundation of most modern computer vision systems, which
enable tasks like object detection and image classification.

Applications of Computer Vision

Computer vision can be used for the following applications:

Face recognition

AI is used in face recognition for devices like smartphones. Face
unlock functionality, where the phone recognises the user’s
face and grants access, is a popular example of AI in action.
This technology uses computer vision algorithms to match the
captured face with the stored data.

Traffic monitoring

AI-powered CCTV cameras are used in traffic monitoring to detect red-
light jumping and speeding. Cameras are equipped with AI to identify
vehicles breaking traffic rules and automatically send violation alerts.
