Background

Computer Vision

A field of AI that enables machines to interpret and understand visual information from images and videos, similar to human visual perception but often with superhuman accuracy and speed. Computer vision systems can identify objects, read text, detect motion, recognize faces, and even understand complex scenes and activities. It's like giving computers the ability to 'see' and make sense of the visual world - from medical imaging that can spot diseases doctors might miss, to autonomous vehicles that navigate traffic, to quality control systems that inspect products faster than human workers. The technology has advanced from simple pattern recognition to sophisticated understanding of spatial relationships, context, and even emotional expressions.
