​COMPUTER VISION TECHNOLOGY

ABSTRACT

Computer vision is a branch of engineering that analyses images to

extract data for controlling processes and activities. Computer vision is a field of
study focused on the problem of helping computers to see. It refers to applications in
which ​the PC automatically makes a decision based on visual input from a camera.

Put another way, CV processes are targeted at "recognizing the actual

objects in an image and assigning properties to those objects--understanding what
they mean. The first step in the CV process is acquisition of an image, typically using
cameras, lenses, and lighting that has been designed to provide the differentiation
required by subsequent processing. CV software packages then employ various
digital image processing techniques to allow the hardware to recognize what it is
looking at.

I am discussing the advantages of computer vision; at the same time

taking into concern the elimination of human factors as machine in many cases
cannot anticipate failures and problems.
