LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Dear Colleague,Embedded Vision Summit

As any of you who watched last May's Embedded Vision Summit keynote from Facebook's Yann Lecun already know, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are an increasingly popular means of extracting meaning from images. Not surprisingly, therefore, they're the focus of multiple presentations at the upcoming Embedded Vision Summit.

Check out the Alliance website for in-depth presenter biographies and abstracts of each of these talks, as well as information on the second keynote (from robot vision pioneer Mike Aldred of Dyson), other technical sessions, and the technology showcase. The Embedded Vision Summit, an educational forum for product creators interested in incorporating visual intelligence into electronic systems and software, takes place on May 12, 2015 at the Santa Clara (California) Convention Center; accompanying partial- and full-day workshops will occur on May 11 and 13. Register today, while the "early bird" limited-time 20% discount is still available!

And while you're on the Alliance website, check out all the other great content recently published there, including nearly a dozen new videos of Alliance member demonstrations at January's Consumer Electronics Show, showcasing applications and functions such as ADAS, face detection, and object tracking. Thanks as always for your support of the Embedded Vision Alliance, and for your interest in and contributions to embedded vision technologies, products and applications. As always, I welcome your suggestions on what the Alliance can do to better service your needs.

FPGA Programmability and Performance Empower Machine Vision and SurveillanceAltera
Cameras and other equipment used in surveillance and machine vision perform a variety of different tasks, ranging from image signal processing, video transport and video format conversion to video compression and analytics. This reprint of a white paper from Altera, an Alliance member company, discusses the roles that FPGAs play in these applications and functions. More

Barrier-Free Parking with ANPR Technology: A Real Option?IHS
Many cities globally continue to become more congested, driving increased investment into off-street parking facilities. In recent years, automated number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras and software have started to be used as part of the overall solution which also includes barriers, payment machines, and loop detectors. The main use of ANPR equipment is to alleviate issues related to ticket payments, where a license plate can be looked up in the system to verify entry times, or for security purposes. However, what if ANPR equipment was the sole solution to automate parking structures? This trend is starting to occur. More
