Do we call cameras "vision system" now?

Are your eyes the only component in your visual perception? Vision systems are comprised of multiple cameras and a processing system that tells the computer what is in its field of view. Just like your eyes receive light and your brain processes this telling another part of your brain what is in your field of view. I hope this helps.

Sure, just feels like a fancy way of saying it has cameras. Of course there is more than cameras, they are useless without a computer interpreting them.

Doesn’t have to be cameras even. Lasers that measure distance/depth may be at play here instead
