Healthcare

In the healthcare industry, AI analyses X-rays or scans to detect diseases
such as cancer, fractures or other abnormalities. AI helps medical
professionals identify conditions more accurately and quickly, improving
the speed of diagnosis.

Self-driving Cars

In autonomous vehicles, AI helps identify pedestrians, traffic
signs, and road lanes using cameras and sensors. The AI
system processes visual data to help the car navigate safely
without human intervention.

Face filters

AI is also used in face filters on apps like Snapchat or Instagram.
These filters use computer vision to identify facial features and
apply virtual elements like animal faces, makeup or virtual
effects in real-time, enhancing user interaction with digital
content.

Let’s say you’re using your smartphone, which uses face recognition to unlock the screen. The
phone’s camera captures your face, and the computer vision system compares it with stored
images of your face in the phone’s memory.
One day, a friend tries to unlock your phone using his face. The AI system recognises that the
face does not match the stored one and refuses to unlock, ensuring your privacy.

Now, answer the following question:
What part of the computer vision system allows the smartphone to recognise and match your

face? How does the system work to make sure it only recognises the right person?
