INTRODUCTION
Computer vision is a fascinating field at the intersection of computer science and artificial
intelligence.
It enables computers to analyze images or video data, unlocking a multitude of applications across
industries.
If AI enables computers to think, computer vision enables them to see, observe and understand
HOW IT WORKS
Computer vision works much the same as human vision, except humans have a head start.
It involves developing algorithms and techniques to extract meaningful information from visual
inputs and make sense of the visual world.
Two essential technologies are used to accomplish this: a type of machine learning called deep
learning and a convolutional neural network (CNN).
Deep Learning
Machine learning uses algorithmic models that enable a computer to teach itself about the context
of visual data.
If enough data is fed through the model, the computer will “look” at the data and teach itself to
tell one image from another.
Convolutional Neaural Network (CNN)
A CNN helps a machine learning or deep learning model “look” by breaking images down into
pixels that are given tags or labels.
It uses the labels to perform convolutions (a mathematical operation on two functions to produce
a third function) and makes predictions about what it is “seeing”.
APPLICATIONS
Computer vision has a wide range of applications across various industries. Some examples
include:
Facial recognition: Identifying individuals through visual analysis.
Self-driving cars: Using computer vision to navigate and avoid obstacles.
Robotic automation: Enabling robots to perform tasks and make decisions based on visual
input.
Medical anomaly detection: Detecting abnormalities in medical images for improved
diagnosis.
Sports performance analysis: Tracking athlete movements to analyze and enhance
performance.
Manufacturing fault detection: Identifying defects in products during the manufacturing
process.
Agricultural monitoring: Monitoring crop growth, livestock health, and weather
conditions through visual data.
COMPUTER VISION WITH OPEN CV
OpenCV (Open Source Computer Vision), a cross-platform and free to use library of functions is
based on real-time Computer Vision which supports Deep Learning frameworks that aids in
image and video processing. In Computer Vision, the principal element is to extract the pixels
from the image to study the objects and thus understand what it contains. Below are a few key
aspects that Computer Vision seeks to recognize in the photographs:
Object Detection: The location of the object.
Object Recognition: The objects in the image, and their positions.
Object Classification: The broad category that the object lies in.
Object Segmentation: The pixels belonging to that object.
NEED OF COMPUTER VISION
From selfies to landscape images, we are flooded with all kinds of photos today. A report by
Internet Trends says people upload more than 1.8 billion photos daily, and that’s just the number
of uploaded images. Consider what the number would come to if you count the images stored in
phones. We consume more than 4, 146, 600 videos on YouTube and send 103, 447, 520 spam
mails daily. Again, that’s just a part of it – communication, media, and entertainment, the IoT are
all actively contributing to this number. This abundantly available visual content demands
analyzing and understanding and Computer vision helps in doing that by way of teaching
machines to “see” these images and videos.
CONCLUSION
As technology continues to develop, we can expect to see even more applications for computer
vision in the future. It is an exciting field that holds great promise for advancements in many areas
of our lives.
