Let us understand the concept of translation in Google translate app with the help of a simple example.
Suppose you want to translate signs or handwritten notes written in foreign language. To translate it in the
desired language, you need to point your phone’s cameras at the words and let the Google translate app tell
you what it means in your desired language.

u Autonomous Cars: As you know, computer vision is the basic
fundamental technology that is used in driverless cars. Nowadays, the
world’s leading car manufacturers are investing a lot of money in artificial
intelligence technology for developing on-road versions of hands-free
technology. This involves the process of identifying the objects, getting
navigational routes and also at the same time environment monitoring.
Computer vision, a special domain of AI in autonomous cars can lead to
the designing and development of advanced and next-gen vehicles which can overcome driving obstacles
while keeping passengers safe. Such cars can transport passengers to their destination eliminating human
intervention.

u Facial Recognition Software: Computer vision is the fundamental technology used in Facial recognition
software which has countless applications in consumer markets, as well as the security and surveillance
industries. In fact, facial recognition technology is already being used to improve security protocols and
payment procedures. The two main tasks that can be performed using facial recognition models are:
• Verification: Verification, a task of comparing a new input face to a known identity. A good example of
this is the unlocking of smartphones with facial identification. When setting up the system, the phone
will register your face as the phone’s owner. Therefore, the only task when unlocking is to compare new
input faces to your registered face on the device.
• Recognition: In simple words, recognition is the task of
comparing an input face to a database of multiple face identities.
This task is often used for security and surveillance systems. A
good example is facial recognition in law enforcement. On the
INTERPOL website, there is a forensics section which explains
how they use facial recognition to identify persons of interest at
airports and border crossings.
u Healthcare: In the healthcare industry, a popular term “medical imaging”
is used. The term “medical imaging” is used to describe a wide variety of
techniques and processes that create a visualization of the body’s interiors
in general and also specific organs or tissues. The main goal of medical
image analysis is to increase the efficiency of clinical examination and
medical intervention. Nowadays, a digital technology computer vision
plays an important role in the analysis of medical images through which
doctors can easily diagnose complicated diseases.

u Optical Character Recognition: The advancements in the field of Computer Vision has many applications in
transforming and automating many business functions. As you know, Digital documentation is one of the
prominent areas where computer vision and artificial intelligence applications are encoding and transcription
documents digitally. Automation of the documentation process will save the time and operational cost of
