UiPath AI Computer Vision: Enterprise RPA with Visual Intelligence

UiPath AI Computer Vision is an advanced robotic process automation (RPA) capability that uses machine learning and computer vision to identify and interact with UI elements on screens, enabling robots to automate applications without relying on fragile DOM selectors or accessibility APIs.

Features

AI-Powered UI Element Recognition

Machine learning models identify buttons, inputs, checkboxes, labels, and other UI elements directly from screen pixels, understanding visual context rather than requiring structured element trees or selectors.

Screen Scraping Intelligence

Advanced OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and visual pattern recognition extract text and data from any application—legacy systems, Citrix/VDI environments, PDFs, images, and applications without API access.

Cross-Platform Automation

Robots work consistently across different environments including local desktops, virtual machines, remote desktop sessions, web applications, and legacy enterprise software regardless of technology stack.

Adaptive Element Selection

Computer vision adapts to UI changes like button repositioning, color scheme updates, or minor layout modifications, reducing automation maintenance compared to traditional coordinate-based or selector-based approaches.

Native UiPath Studio Integration

Fully integrated into UiPath Studio with visual designers, pre-built activities (Click, Type Into, Get Text), and debugging tools for enterprise-grade automation development workflows.

Enterprise-Grade Scalability

Deploy robots at scale across organizations with UiPath Orchestrator for centralized management, scheduling, monitoring, and governance of automated processes running on multiple machines.

Key Capabilities

Click Activities: Vision-based clicking on any UI element
Data Entry: Type into fields identified by visual characteristics
