  8. Human Vision • Can do amazing things like: • Recognize people and objects • Navigate through obstacles • Understand mood in the scene • Imagine stories • But still is not perfect: • Suffers from Illusions • Ignores many details • Ambiguous description of the world • Doesn’t care about accuracy of world

  9. Computer Vision What we see What a computer sees
