Research Aim: Computer vision in the field of artificial intelligence makes systems so smart that they can analyze and understand images and pictures. These machines then derive some intelligence from the image that has been fed to the system. This research will first aim to understand computer vision and its role in artificial intelligence. A framework will be presented that will explain the working of computer vision in artificial intelligence. This study will present the applications of computer vision to clarify further how artificial intelligence uses computer vision to build smart systems.
