“Wherever there is a requirement for data to drive machine learning, there is a role for synthetic data. Creating synthetic datasets in a virtual world means you can create millions of images very quickly compared to going out to the field and taking pictures.”
JACK HSU / BOEING VANCOUVERSenior Manager
“At Ouva, our patient monitoring platform used Unity Computer Vision to generate synthetic data and reduced our month-long live data capture cycles to a week, while our dataset grew by 10X and model accuracies improved by 5 to 10%.”
