Computer vision is a rapidly evolving field that focuses on enabling computers to interpret and understand visual information from the world around us. This technology has applications in various domains, including healthcare, automotive, security, and entertainment.

Key Areas of Computer Vision

  1. Image Recognition

    • Object Detection: Identifying and locating objects within an image.
    • Image Classification: Categorizing images into predefined classes.
    • Image Segmentation: Dividing an image into multiple segments.

  2. Video Analysis

    • Tracking: Tracking objects across multiple frames in a video sequence.
    • Action Recognition: Identifying actions performed by individuals in a video.
    • Event Detection: Detecting and recognizing events within a video.

  3. 3D Reconstruction

    • Creating a 3D representation of objects or scenes from 2D images.

Real-World Applications

  • Healthcare: Detecting diseases from medical images, such as X-rays and MRI scans.
  • Automotive: Autonomous driving, pedestrian detection, and traffic sign recognition.
  • Security: Facial recognition for access control and surveillance.
  • Entertainment: Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) experiences.
