The vision features included in ERSP are centered around our ViPR technology. ViPR enables a robot or device to recognize 2D and 3D objects in real world settings where lighting and placement are not controlled.
The Vision APIs provide access to very powerful computer vision algorithms. These algorithms can analyze camera images and extract information that can be used for various tasks such as recognizing an object, detecting motion, or detecting skin.

- 80-100% recognition rate depending on the character of the objects to recognize
- Works for a wide range of viewing angles, lens distortion, imager noise, and lighting conditions
- Works even when a large section (up to 90%) of the pattern is occluded from the view by another object
- Can simultaneously recognize multiple objects
- Can handle databases with hundreds or even thousands of visual patterns without a significant increase in computational requirements (the computation scales logarithmically with the number of patterns)
- Using a 1400 MHz PC, ViPR can process 208 x 160 pixel images at approximately 14-18 frames per second
