That still leaves the original question of why dedicated cameras aren’t doing this.
- formerly_proven 4y agoThe question of GP wasn't that, but why you can't buy "iPhone image processing pipeline to UVC/USB".
- aendruk 4y agoI think we agree but you don’t understand me.
- dekhn 4y agothere are cameras that do this; there are many UVC USB3 webcams with phone-grade sensors (medium quality).
- aendruk 4y ago“This” refers to the contribution of software processing described above, i.e. explicitly not the matter of sensor quality.
- dekhn 4y agooh, that's for economic reasons. The industrial and desktop consumer computer vision markets are orders of magnitude smaller and their development cycle times orders of magnitude longer. I looked into this a while ago- trying to use gcam technology for scientific imaging- when I worked at Google, and there was zero interest from those teams. They were 100% focused on next-gen camera tech (and it showed- that was the period when phones got unbelievably good at taking high quality images using computational photography).
- sydthrowaway 4y agoProbably cause Big Tech stole all the computer vision and DSP folks
