Dear Colleague,
New to this year’s Embedded Vision Summit,
taking place on May
12 in Santa Clara, California, are sessions focused on computer vision
business opportunities, market trends, and applications. They’re
tailored for engineering and corporate management attendees, along with
analysts, editors, and others who don’t require in-depth technology
details but are instead interested in application and market overview
information and other bigger-picture topics.
The first three of these presentations are now published on
the event
speaker page. Andy Chang, senior manager for academic
research at National Instruments, will deliver a talk on “Enabling the
Factory of the Future with Embedded Vision.” Simon Morris, CEO of
CogniVue, will present “Trends, Challenges and Opportunities in
Vision-Based Automotive Safety and Autonomous Driving Systems.” And
Michael Tusch, Founder and CEO of Apical Limited, will discuss “Using
Vision to Create Smarter Consumer Devices with Improved Privacy.”
Check out the Alliance website for presenter biographies and
in-depth abstracts of each of these talks, and keep an eye out for more
business session announcements to come. In addition, the Embedded
Vision Summit agenda will include numerous technical sessions, along
with two
keynote talks and a product
showcase. The 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 both May 11
and 13. Register
today, while the “early bird” limited-time 20%
discount is still available!
While you’re on the Alliance website, check out all the other
great new content recently published there, including nearly
a dozen
videos of Alliance member demonstrations at January’s Consumer
Electronics Show, showcasing applications and functions such as ADAS,
face detection, gaze tracking and object recognition. You’ll also find
more
than a dozen Alliance member press releases from other recent
industry conferences. 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. Please don’t hesitate
to let me know how the
Alliance can better serve your needs.

Gesture Control, Voice Recognition, Eye Tracking, Motion
Sensor, Proximity Touch Market Forecasted to Reach $42.6 Billion by 2020
Gesture control, voice recognition, eye
tracking, proximity touch, and motion sensors have gained momentum in
the past few years. Apple, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Samsung, LG,
Intel and Qualcomm are all working on touchless HMI
(human-machine-interaction). They’ve acquired or will acquire small
companies with touchless technologies. The USA is the most active
country in the touchless HMI market with 96 companies. Japan is No. 2,
Germany is No. 3. “From mobile phones to automobiles, from digital
signage to home/building automation, from notebook PC to wearable
devices, touchless human-machine-interaction is the next big thing.
Touchless HMI provides the benefit of hygiene/cleanness, safety,
power/resource saving, convenience, fun, and coolness. We forecast that
the touchless HMI market will grow rapidly in the next several years,”
said Dr. Jennifer Colegrove, Principal Analyst at Touch Display
Research. More
Consumer and DIY Home Monitoring Cameras: The Market to Watch
Consumer awareness of video surveillance
and home video monitoring is increasing. This has been helped by the
exposure Dropcam has provided the category. Retailers are taking note
and network cameras are increasingly present on the shelves and
webpages of many stores. IHS forecasts over 11 million consumer and DIY
network cameras will be shipped worldwide in 2015. With the
proliferation of standalone network cameras, the category has evolved
beyond just security. More
