Applications of Computer Vision
The field of computer science that deals with image classification, object detection and video processing form
the field of Computer Vision in AI.
Let us study about some examples related to the applications of Computer Vision.
Image Classification and Object Detection
Google’s search by images is an example of Computer Vision. The input image compares different features with
the image database and once it matches, gives us the search result. Photos on our phones are also segregated
under various albums, that is the result of object classification. If you see a plant in your garden which you don’t
recognise, click a picture and search using applications like google Lens. The image search, object detection is so
accurate with Computer Vision.
Banking
Nowadays, to deposit a cheque you don’t have to go to the bank. Click a picture of the cheque from your phone
of both the sides of the cheque. Using the Bank application, upload the picture. It will use image recognition to
find the cheque number, amount to be deposited, name of the user depositing the cheque and the authenticity
of the signatures.
Agriculture
Computer Vision is used in agriculture in various ways. With the use of object detection, a fruit on a tree
can give an estimate on your yield. As a farmer you can predict how much you are going to get. Farmers,
especially when you have big farms, drones can be used for multiple purposes like looking after plants and
soils individually for weeding, spraying and thinning or identifying fruits not just for counting but also for
yield and science estimates.
