Besides computer vision, matrix multiplication is being heavily used in computer graphics. For example, when you were typing in your question, if anything moved onto your screen that was matrix multiplication in action.
Another application I can think of lies in computer and internet security. For example, if you have ever done any online shopping or banking chances are there was some matrix multiplication going on in the background to protect your password or PIN number.
Also, if you have ever taken any operations research course, you may be impressed by how often matrix multiplication is being used with the linear programming technique.
That’s all right off the top of my head. Hope this helps.
