As mobile devices become more powerful, computer vision is set to enhance mobile applications in several areas. One promising application is augmented reality (AR) integration, where users can interact with the physical world through their phone’s camera in real-time. Apps like AR navigation, virtual interior design, and gaming already use AR, but expect further refinement, allowing for better object recognition and interaction. For instance, in retail, mobile apps could allow customers to virtually place furniture or products in their homes using AR. Another growing application is healthcare. Mobile apps could use computer vision for diagnosing medical conditions by analyzing images or videos of skin lesions, eye scans, or even motion disorders. Apps that scan and analyze these visuals for signs of conditions like melanoma, diabetic retinopathy, or early-stage Parkinson’s disease could empower users to monitor their health regularly. Personalized fitness applications are another area of growth. Mobile apps could use computer vision to analyze posture and movement during exercise, offering real-time feedback and correcting form to avoid injuries. Additionally, mobile security can benefit from computer vision, where facial recognition or gesture-based controls replace traditional passwords and PINs. Mobile devices could also automatically adjust privacy settings based on facial recognition, for example, locking certain apps or hiding notifications when someone else is looking at the screen.
