This article was originally published at Texas Instruments’ website (PDF). It is reprinted here with the permission of Texas Instruments. Introduction Computer-vision algorithms used to be quite different from one another. For example, one algorithm would use Hough transforms to detect lines and circles, whereas detecting objects of interest in images would require another technique

Deep learning and other machine learning techniques have rapidly become a transformative force in computer vision. Compared to conventional computer vision techniques, machine learning algorithms deliver superior results on functions such as recognizing objects, localizing objects within a frame, and determining which pixels belong to which object. Even problems like optical flow and stereo correspondence,

DNNs (deep neural networks) have transformed the field of computer vision, delivering superior results on functions such as recognizing objects, localizing objects within a frame, and determining which pixels belong to which object. Even problems like optical flow and stereo correspondence, which had been solved quite well with conventional techniques, are now finding even better

The ability to "stitch" together (offline or in real-time) multiple images taken simultaneously by multiple cameras and/or sequentially by a single camera, in both cases capturing varying viewpoints of a scene, is becoming an increasingly appealing (if not necessary) capability in an expanding variety of applications. High quality of results is a critical requirement, one
