## Overview

This repository is a beginner machine-vision course delivered as nine runnable notebooks, not a software library or application. Students work through image fundamentals and classical techniques before exploring AI, then apply those ideas in a mini-project. The README documents Google Colab as the execution environment and notes that some lessons download pre-trained models. Notebook internals were not available, so the graph shows documented lesson capabilities and launch/execution context, not internal code or data-flow details.
