Introduction to OpenCV AI Kits(OAK-1 and OAK-D)
An Introduction to the OAK-D and OpenCV AI Competition
The gadget for the growing fields of computer vision and 3D perception which packs a lot of capabilities into a small unit.
I started to explore OpenCV AI Kit D (OAK-D) because of the OpenCV AI Competition. This is an international Artificial Intelligence competition celebrating OpenCV’s 20th anniversary. A total prize worth of $400K will be awarded with global and regional winners. This international competition is sponsored by Azure and Intel. In this challenge teams has to work on real life problems using OAK-D.
What is OAK-D?
OAK is a modular, open-source ecosystem composed of MIT-licensed hardware, software, and AI training — that allows you to embed the super-power of spatial AI plus accelerated computer vision functions into your product. OAK provides in a single, cohesive solution what would otherwise require cobbling together disparate hardware and software components.
The OpenCV AI Kit-D (OAK-D) is a smart camera with neural inference and depth processing capability. The OAK-D is an actual variant of its predecessor — OpenCV AI Kit (OAK) capable of Spatial…
