Traffic sign recognition is one of emerging capabilities of advanced driver assistance and safety systems. In this demonstration, images captured by a 30 fps color camera are fed to algorithms running on a DM6437 EVM board and analyzed to detect circular traffic signs. When red circles are detected, they are further analyzed and classified within […]

The July issue of Wired Magazine, which I received in the mail just the other day, contains an excellent cover story which I commend to your attention. Entitled "How I Accidentally Kickstarted the Domestic Drone Boom," it's written by publication Editor-in-Chief Chris Anderson and discusses (in Anderson's usual humble fashion…ahem…) the flourishing interest in autonomous

The face detection demo algorithm included in the C6748 Sys/BIOS software development kit demonstrates the capability of the device to capture images, process the images on a TI C6748 DSP and then display the images on the output. OpenCV's cxcore library is used to identify a face. The input is captured using a standard composite

Back in late November, I reported that gesture interface middleware developer eyeSight had received a notable funding injection from processor core provider CEVA. More recently, you learned that the companies are co-presenting at an upcoming webcast…which is tomorrow, in fact, so don't forget to register and attend! The two are obviously quite tight. So it

Last November, rumors began circulating in cyberspace regarding the next-generation Microsoft Kinect peripheral…that it would be, for example, accurate enough to read the lips of people sitting in front of it, along with delivering improved motion tracking and voice recognition (the latter by virtue of the camera peripheral's integrated microphone array), and being "able to

Back in early May, I dedicated a news writeup to Samsung's just-announced and latest-generation Galaxy S III smartphone, by virtue of its abundance of embedded vision talents. Since it's based on the Android v4 O/S, it automatically supports Google's facial recognition unlock scheme (which Samsung has augmented by requiring you to not only stare into

Speaking of Texas Instruments, a few weeks ago the company introduced its new TMS320C6748 DSP Development Kit, which is intended to support real-time video analytics (specifically biometrics, for access control) applications such as fingerprint identification and face detection-and-recognition. From the press release: The C6748 DSP development kit comes pre-loaded with TI's new C6748 SYS/BIOS Software

Hopefully, some of you have already had the opportunity to audition the recently published presentation done by Jonathan Epstein, Omek Interactive's President, at the late March Embedded Vision Alliance Summit: Jonathan spoke at length about Beckon, one of the two primary gesture interface middleware-and-tools products supported by the company, the other being Grasp. In both
