What is Computer Vision?
Computer vision is a field of computer science that
enables machines to interpret and understand visual
information from images or videos. By emulating human
vision, it allows computers to perform tasks like object
detection, face recognition, and scene understanding,
playing a crucial role in autonomous systems and image
analysis.

3. Computer vision lets you bring tech to life by building
smart applications that "see" and understand the world.
Imagine creating tools that detect objects, recognize
faces, or add fun filters to photos! These skills are in high
demand across industries like healthcare, security, and
entertainment, opening doors to exciting projects and
career paths.

Real-Life Applications

8. Start with image classification (like cats vs. dogs),
face detection with OpenCV, and designing
custom filters (sepia or blur). Try object detection
for identifying items in photos and edge
detection to highlight outlines. These beginner-
friendly projects build practical skills for real-world
computer vision applications.
