Aiming to move from conventional throughput-centric paradigms to intelligent, context-aware systems able of perception and autonomous decision-making, sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks is seeking. Driven by recent developments in deep learning and edge artificial intelligence, computer vision (CV) proves to be a key enabler for such perceptive 6G systems. This paper offers a thorough overview bringing together the scattered terrain of CV-enabled 6G technologies. It benchmarks current models against major 6G performance criteria, evaluates architectural paradigms including federated and split learning, and presents a disciplined taxonomy of use cases. This study also notes the possibili... More >
