Colored images are less frequently used in traditional computer vision tasks because processing grayscale images reduces computational complexity without significantly impacting performance. Grayscale images contain sufficient information for many tasks, such as edge detection and feature extraction, as color often adds redundant data. However, colored images are essential for tasks where color plays a critical role, such as scene understanding, object classification, and medical imaging. The choice depends on the specific requirements of the task.
