+### Computer Vision
+
+Computer vision is a field of computer science that works on enabling computers to see,
+identify and process images in the same way that human vision does, and then provide appropriate output.
+It is like imparting human intelligence and instincts to a computer. 
+Image processing and computer vision and little different from each other.Image processing means applying some algorithms for transforming image from one form to other like smoothing,contrasting, stretching etc
+While in computer vision comes from modelling image processing using the techniques of machine learning.Computer vision applies machine learning to recognize patterns for interpretation of images. 
+Much like the process of visual reasoning of human vision
