Computer Vision

Computer vision is a field of artificial intelligence that uses digital images and deep learning to teach computers to interpret and understand the visual world similarly to humans. Early experiments in computer vision began in the 1950s using neural networks to detect simple object properties, while the 1970s saw the first commercial application in optical character recognition. Computer vision has many useful applications today including face recognition, healthcare diagnosis, autonomous vehicles, agriculture, and more. The technology provides benefits like faster automated processes but also faces disadvantages such as potential privacy and bias issues if the training data is limited.

COMPUTER

V I S I O N
Computer Vision
is a field of artificial intelligence that trains
computers to interpret and understand the
visual world. Using digital images from
cameras and videos and deep learning models,
machines can accurately identify and classify
objects and then react to what they “see.”
History of Computer Vision
Early experiments in computer vision took place in
the 1950s, using some of the first neural networks to
detect the edges of an object and to sort simple
objects into categories like circles and squares. In
the 1970s, the first commercial use of computer
vision interpreted typed or handwritten text using
optical character recognition. This advancement was
used to interpret written text for the blind.
Computer Vision is very important, in today’s
world where, every industry is trying to
improvise their systems, make them more
streamlined,
What computer vision is used for?
Computer vision is a powerful capability and it
can be combined with many types of
applications and sensing devices to support a
number of practical use cases. Here are just a
few different types of computer vision
applications:
Face recognition

Computer vision
can be applied to
identify
individuals.
Healthcare

Photos or images captured


by other medical devices
can be analyzed to provide
to help doctors identify
problems and make
diagnoses more quickly
and accurately.
Autonomous vehicles

Self-driving cars use real-


time object identification
and tracking to gather
information about what's
happening around a car
and route the car
accordingly.
Spatial analysis

The system identifies


people or objects,
such as cars, in a space
and tracks their
movement within that
space.
Agriculture

Images of crops taken


from satellites, drones,
or planes can be
analyzed to monitor
harvests, detect weed
emergence or identify
crop nutrient deficiency.
Advantage and
Disadvantages of Computer
Vision
Advantage
Faster and simpler process - Computer vision
systems can carry out repetitive and
monotonous tasks at a faster rate, which
simplifies the work for humans.

Better products and services - Computer


vision systems that have been trained very well
will commit zero mistakes. This will result in
faster delivery of high-quality products and
services.
Cost-reduction - Companies do not
have to spend money on fixing their
flawed processes because computer
vision will leave no room for faulty
products and services.
New Possibilities – With computer vision, there are
countless new possibilities for innovation and
creativity. For example, computer vision can be used to
develop new forms of art or entertainment, or to
create new tools and applications that we can’t even
imagine yet.
Disadvantage
Limited Context Awareness – While computers are great
at analyzing visual data, they often struggle to interpret
context or make sense of information beyond what is
directly in front of them. This can lead to errors or
inaccuracies in certain situations.
Privacy Concerns – As computer vision becomes more
prevalent, there are growing concerns about privacy
and surveillance. For example, some worry that
computer vision systems could be used to track
people’s movements or behaviors without their
consent.
Bias and Inaccuracy – Like any technology,
computer vision systems are only as good
as the data they are trained on. If the data is
biased or incomplete, the system may
produce inaccurate or unfair results.
Dependence on Infrastructure – Computer
vision systems often rely on complex
infrastructure like cameras, sensors, and
networks. If this infrastructure is compromised
or disrupted, the system may not function
properly.
