👁️ Computer Vision
Computer Vision enables machines to interpret and understand the visual world. It powers facial recognition, self‑driving cars, medical imaging, and more.
🧠 How AI Sees Images
A Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) processes an image through layers:
- Input layer – pixels (e.g., 224×224×3 RGB values).
- Convolutional layers – detect edges, textures, shapes.
- Pooling layers – reduce size, keep important features.
- Fully connected layers – combine features to classify.
🚀 Live Demo: Image Classifier (MobileNet)
Upload any image or use a default one. The model (pre‑trained on 1,000+ object categories) will predict what it sees.
📘 How it works (MobileNet with TensorFlow.js)
// Load pre-trained MobileNet model
const model = await mobilenet.load();
// Get image element (or from file input)
const img = document.getElementById('preview');
// Classify
const predictions = await model.classify(img);
console.log(predictions); // [{className: "dog", probability: 0.92}, ...]
🌍 Real‑World Computer Vision
✨ Challenge: Test with Your Own Objects
Upload photos of everyday items (phone, book, coffee mug, fruit). Note which predictions are accurate and which are surprising. Try a photo with multiple objects – the model will return the top guess.
