First Layer Computer Vision Project

Here are a few use cases for this project:

1. Navigation Apps: The "First Layer" computer vision model can be used within navigation applications to automatically interpret and identify directions and distances from road signs or markings. This would streamline how turn-by-turn navigation is provided and improve the user experience.

2. Autonomous Vehicles: It can aid in autonomous driving systems by helping the car understand the road directions and distances presented via road signs. The model, therefore, contributes to safer and more efficient navigation.

3. Outdoor Gaming Applications: The "First Layer" could be used in outdoor gaming apps, particularly those involving treasure hunts or orientation games, where the clues are related to real-world sign units. The model can discern these signs and help players navigate in the correct direction.

4. Geocaching Activities: Geocaching, a popular outdoor recreational activity where participants use a GPS receiver or mobile device to hide and seek containers (called "geocaches") at specific locations marked by coordinates all over the world, can benefit from this model. It could decipher signs and directions, enhancing the user's ability to locate the cache.

5. Mapping and Surveying: Surveyors and cartographers could use the "First Layer" model to facilitate the process of mapping or surveying land. The model can read and interpret signs related to directions and distances, automating part of the data collection process.
