A new developer-friendly open-source library released by UBC's Human Communication Technologies Laboratory helps pave the way for new applications in computer vision. For GRAND researcher Dr. Gregor Miller, computer vision is at the forefront of many of the cool technological shifts we see today. His research at UBC's Human Communication Technologies Laboratory aims to make the domain's techniques accessible to mainstream software developers – suggesting the biggest shift in computer vision tech is yet to come. Computer vision generally involves extracting and processing visual information from images and video, often in real-time. In addition to numerous applications in industry and consumers - in cameras to detect faces in photos or, in manufacturing, defective products on a conveyer belt - computer vision techniques have been integral to many of the exciting new digital technologies developed in the past decade.
