Computers Take Up Lip Reading

CNN has a new article called Computers Take Up Lip Reading, which mentions a new possible application for Artificial Intelligence. The lip reading technology is based on one of Intel's new libraries: OpenCV - Open Source Computer Vision, which allows the pattern recognition to work with depth information as well as colour data. The library is a toolbox of 500 imaging and computer vision functions and applications.

The article claims all this is entirely new, but it has definitely been used before, in robotics among many others. It's possible that this approach to lip-reading is novel, so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt!
