Adds a comprehensive vision/ Python package providing modular, lazily-loaded computer vision capabilities (detection, segmentation, depth, tracking, pose, VLM, motion, scene understanding) for a robotics AGI system.

Module structure

  • detection/YOLODetector (ultralytics), DETRDetector (HF transformers), PersonDetector, HandDetector (MediaPipe), GraspDetector; shared BaseDetector with NMS
  • segmentation/SemanticSegmentor (DeepLabV3+), InstanceSegmentor (Mask R-CNN), SAMSegmentor, PanopticSegmentor
  • depth/MonocularDepthEstimator (MiDaS), DepthAnythingEstimator, StereoDepthEstimator, PointCloudGenerator
  • tracking/MultiObjectTracker (Kalman filter), ByteTracker, DeepSORTTracker, ReIDModel
  • pose/HumanPoseEstimator (17 keypoints, fall detection), ObjectPoseEstimator (6-DoF PnP), HandPoseEstimator (gestures), Pose3DEstimator
  • features/FeatureExtractor (ORB/SIFT/AKAZE/deep), FeatureMatcher, VisualOdometry
  • scene/SceneAnalyzer, AffordanceDetector, SceneGraph, SpatialRelations
  • vlm/CLIPInterface, VisualQA (BLIP-2), ImageCaptioner (BLIP), VisualGrounding (OWL-ViT)
  • motion/OpticalFlow (Farneback/LK), MotionSegmentor, MotionPredictor
  • preprocessing/ImageEnhancer, Denoiser, SuperResolution
  • utils/ — visualization helpers, transforms, metrics (mAP/MOTA/PCK), camera projection utilities
  • models/ModelLoader with registry + disk cache, SimpleCNN, UNet, DetectionHead

Unified pipeline

All modules are accessible via a single lazy-loading entry point:

from vision import VisionPipeline

vision = VisionPipeline(enable_detection=True, enable_depth=True, device="cuda")

results = vision.process_frame(image)
# results.objects, results.depth_map, results.scene_description, ...

cup = vision.find_object("red cup")   # CLIP-guided retrieval
vision.answer("Is the door open?")    # VQA

Supporting files

  • vision/config/ — YAML configs for detection, segmentation, and depth defaults
  • requirements.txt / setup.py — full dependency manifest
  • tests/test_vision/ — 74 unit tests; heavy model paths mocked so the suite runs without GPU
  • .gitignore — excludes __pycache__, model weights, build artifacts

Add Advanced Computer Vision Functions for Robotics AGI

Objective

Enhance the Agentic AGI robotics system with comprehensive computer vision capabilities using PyTorch, OpenCV, and state-of-the-art vision models. This should provide robust visual perception for robots to understand and interact with their environment.

Technology Stack

  • PyTorch - Deep learning framework
  • OpenCV - Computer vision library
  • torchvision - Pre-trained models and utilities
  • Ultralytics - YOLOv8/YOLOv9 for object detection
  • Segment Anything (SAM) - Advanced segmentation
  • CLIP - Vision-language understanding
  • DepthAnything - Monocular depth estimation
  • Transformers - Vision transformers and models

Core Computer Vision Functions to Implement

1. Object Detection (vision/detection/)

Multi-Model Detection System

# detection/detector.py

- YOLACT for real-time instance segmentation
- Panoptic segmentation
- Object boundary refinement

Interactive Segmentation

  • Point-based segmentation (click to segment)

  • Text-prompted segmentation with CLIP

3. Depth Estimation (vision/depth/)

# depth/depth_estimator.py
- Monocular depth estimation (DepthAnything, MiDaS)
