  • Object recognition with dynamic switching of visual recognition processes using an image capturing device
    Patent number: 11151404
    Abstract: A processor(s) processes multiple image frames of a scene for object recognition by applying a first process of a plurality of visual recognition processes using different grid sizes, to one or more image frames. The first process divides the image frame(s) into an m×m grid to determine bounding boxes for identifying one or more objects. Based on detecting passage of a predefined time interval, less than a period of time represented by the image frames, processing dynamically switches to a second process to process one or more other image frames. The second process is applied to the other image frame(s), dividing the other image frame(s) into an n×n grid to determine bounding boxes for identifying one or more other objects in the other image frame(s), where the n×n grid used by the second process is different from the m×m grid.
