Computer vision is an important Artificial Intelligence application that will transform many industries and many business processes. Also known as machine vision technology, this data-driven innovation allows machines to interpret the world visually. This visual data can be in the form of photos, videos, or feed from infrared and thermal cameras too. As a way of imitating the human visual system, the researchers in the field of computer vision intend to develop machines that can automate tasks that require visual cognition. One of the most commonly known examples of this technology is facial recognition. Currently, machine vision is driven by deep learning algorithms that use a special kind of neural networks, called convolutional neural network (CNN), to make sense of visual data. Further, Big data is also contributing to the development of what a computer' eye' can recognize and draw conclusions from what it 'sees.' Now, some companies are striving their best to set a remarkable example by setting computer vision as their business endeavor.
