Whether dispensing spectacles or contactlenses, co-managing LASIK, or cataract surgery,treating diseases such as glaucoma or fitting a lowvision device, the ultimate goal is improved vision.Rarely do we get the opportunity to alter the outcomeof patients’ lives. Binocular vision allows you to take achild’s or an adult’s life and put them on a better path.”M. Taub. Binocular vision anomalies: What every optometrist should know.

What is Robotic Vision? This is where robotic vision differs from computer vision. For robotic vision, perception is only one part of a more complex, embodied, active, and goal-driven system. Robotic vision therefore has to take into account that its immediate outputs (object detection, segmentation, depth estimates, 3D reconstruction,
