Computer vision for the next generation of autonomous robots
Computer vision enables machines to collect and process visual data from the world around them to accomplish complex tasks that require visual understanding. Robots are equipped with cameras and other sensors that capture visual information, and they use computer vision algorithms to extract meaningful information from that data. \n\nVision-based autonomous robots are able to perceive and interpret their surroundings, detect and recognize objects and people they have never seen before, and understand and respond to human behavior. This paves the way for even more sophisticated and capable robots in customer service, education, environmental monitoring, manufacturing, search and rescue operations, or space exploration. \n\nJoin this AI for Good webinar to learn about the latest advances in computer vision for robotics that are enabling robots to “see”, its main applications for social good, and the challenges that remain in this field. \n\nSpeakers:\nAlexander Wong\nCanada Research Chair\nUniversity of Waterloo\n\nKaren A. Panetta\nDean for Graduate Education\nTufts University School of Engineering\n\nJoin us for two days of never before presented, state of the art AI solutions and cutting edge knowledge, aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.\nRegister and learn more here: https://aiforgood.itu.int/summit23/\n\nJoin the Neural Network!\nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/neural-network/\nThe AI for Good networking community platform powered by AI. \nDesigned to help users build connections with innovators and experts, link innovative ideas with social impact opportunities, and bring the community together to advance the SDGs using AI.\n\n Watch the latest #AIforGood videos!\n\n\n Stay updated and join our weekly AI for Good newsletter:\nhttp://eepurl.com/gI2kJ5\n\nCheck out the latest AI for Good news:\nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/newsroom/\n\nExplore the AI for Good blog:\nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/ai-for-good-blog/\n\n Connect on our social media:\nWebsite: https://aiforgood.itu.int/\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/AIforGood\nLinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/26511907 \nLinkedIn Group: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/8567748 \nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/aiforgood \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/AIforGood\n\nWhat is AI for Good?\nWe have less than 10 years to solve the UN SDGs and AI holds great promise to advance many of the sustainable development goals and targets.\nMore than a Summit, more than a movement, AI for Good is presented as a year round digital platform where AI innovators and problem owners learn, build and connect to help identify practical AI solutions to advance the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.\nAI for Good is organized by ITU in partnership with 40 UN Sister Agencies and co-convened with Switzerland.\n\nDisclaimer:\nThe views and opinions expressed are those of the panelists and do not reflect the official policy of the ITU.
