Image processing refers to the process of drawing out useful information from an input image or enhancing the input image to achieve the desired results. The real-time applications of image processing can be found in almost every domain:
1. The medical field uses image processing for analyzing test reports, x-rays, medical scans and UV imaging.
2. Computer vision primarily uses image processing and is used in various systems such as self-driving vehicles, 3D motion games, drones, and robotics.
3. Other applications of image processing include restoring old videos and images, pattern recognition, and multimedia security.
