Visual applications are already being implemented in a variety of applications today, from security systems that recognize facial features, to military targeting and tracking systems, to novelty programs such as games. Ore. Such systems typically require more powerful processors, potentially driving up demand for Intel's high-end chips.
Many potential uses The possible implementations of visual-recognition technology are widespread.
In a factory environment, for instance, computers could help identify defective parts on assembly lines, Pinfold said. In another example, a speaker could be making a presentation using a computer projection on a large screen where the use of a typical mouse would be inconvenient. Computers could even be designed to recognize sign language, Pinfold said. Feedback will yield better processors Intel's Microprocessor Research Lab sees vision-enabling software as the next logical progression in application development. We think that we've got a core of library functions that are a good foundation for researchers to build on and to grow a fully fledged vision library.
