computer vision
Algorithmic image understanding
Computer vision is a field of artificial intelligence that enables computers to interpret and analyze visual information from images or video.
Systems extract meaning from pixels—identifying faces, reading text, detecting objects, or tracking motion.
The self-driving car uses computer vision to recognize pedestrians and road signs.
The technology powers everything from medical imaging diagnostics to smartphone photo filters.
