Module Overview
Originated by Dr. Sinisa Sigvic
Computer vision is an interdisciplinary field that deals with how computers can be made to gain high-level understanding from digital images or videos. From the perspective of engineering, it is based around tasks that the human visual system can do.
Computer vision tasks include methods for acquiring, processing, analyzing and understanding digital images, and extraction of high-dimensional data from the real world in order to produce numerical or symbolic information, e.g., in the forms of decisions.
In this module, pupils will work together on small bitesize activities on: How machines sense their surroundings, an introduction to electronic circuits, what is meant by logic?, switching and binary code
