Visual information refers to data that is perceived and processed visually, such as images, videos, or spatial patterns. In the context of computer vision and AI, visual information includes features like color, texture, edges, and shapes extracted from visual inputs. This data is used to interpret and understand the content of images or scenes. For example, visual information is utilized in object detection, where features like contours and gradients help identify and classify objects. Processing visual information is essential in fields like robotics, augmented reality, and surveillance to enable intelligent decision-making and interaction.
