A field of AI focused on enabling computers to interpret images and video, supporting tasks like object detection, classification, and tracking.
Mosqitter, a 30-person Pennsylvania startup, will introduce its Febris monitoring system next month on a fleet it says has passed 5,000 traps. Febris is aimed at institutional buyers, and TechCrunch's report does not include a price for it.

Danu Robotics is taking its H.E.R.O. recycling sorter to market with $500,000 in signed contracts, TechCrunch reported. Those contracts are undated, and they are early evidence for a retrofit robot whose payback case still rests on founder Amy Ma's own revenue estimate.

York University researchers found macaque neurons shift their code for a still target's position after motion adaptation, as human perception does. The AI vision networks they tested showed no such shift, so the team proposes the illusion as a NeuroAI benchmark.

Cornell's WildFin team found standard vision models still misread fish behavior after tuning on nine hours of reef video that took about 2,000 hours to make. The team blames scarce wildlife footage in model training and is asking ecologists to release their field video, a remedy this study has not yet tested.

A new book from MIT's Senseable City Lab argues that computer vision can quantify streets at a scale pen-and-paper urbanism never reached, and the account of it gives privacy and fairness one line.

The $2,195 Tread Flex stands upright on wheels in about half the footprint of Peloton's other treadmills. It undercuts the roughly $4,000 debut Tread by about 45 percent. The camera that grades running form stays on the dearer models.

The Replicate build from hautechai takes one image URI and one query string per call, with both thresholds adjustable between 0 and 1. Throughput and memory are numbers you would have to measure yourself.

MIT Technology Review found more than 110 deaths inside the advertised range of Anduril's border towers since 2021. Tower footage is generally overwritten after 30 days, so no one can now say which stage of the alert chain failed.

The camera that tells Petlibro's Granary 2 Vision which cat is at the bowl adds $60 to the price of the same feeder without it. The eating record it builds sits behind a subscription starting at $59.99 a year.

The Form D behind the closed round counts convertible securities that had already converted as half of the $30,792,485 total. The data source the money funds is a camera worn by each worker all day.

Two teenagers were arrested in early September after the robotaxi pulled over and alerted emergency services. Waymo described the policy in an email, and left out the confidence threshold and the human review step.

Lewis J. Pinault of the SETI Institute and his co-authors argue that the airless, tectonically dead moon has spent a billion years collecting and burying interstellar grains that no radio search could ever hear.
Reality
The $130 million round is all primary equity at an estimated $1 billion valuation, so roughly 13 percent of the company changed hands, and the recurring revenue it is priced against is described only as tens of millions of dollars.

The Tel Aviv company says AI data centre schedules are part of what is driving demand, and that contractors are signing multiyear deals covering whole portfolios of projects.

Bullfrog uses computer vision to hold the aim while a gun already in service does the firing. ACS is opening an Austin plant to build more of them for the Army, the Navy and now the Marine Corps.

The Penn State system read color and depth images of 30 male turkeys in one pen and forecast their weights three weeks out at roughly 93 percent accuracy. Every training label came off a hand scale.

Ukraine's Avengers Labs platform opens to UK firms under a rule that keeps the trained model in Ukraine. The scarce input for autonomous targeting is annotated front-line imagery, not architecture.
