Abstract

Information from execution of a vision processing module may be used to control a 3D vision system.

Claims

1. A system comprising:

a 3D vision system configured to provide vision data;

a computer in communication with the 3D vision system, the computer configured to process the vision data; and

a display in communication with the computer, the display configured to change in response to the processed vision data.
