TI And Biometrics: A DSP Development Kit Purports To Make Implementation A Breeze

Biometrics /

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 […]

Omek Interactive’s Beckon: Gesture Interfaces Now On The Texas Instruments-Based BeagleBoard-xM

Gesture Control /

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

Making Commercials More Engaging: Embedded Vision’s Trying

Gesture Control, Information Access and Analytics /

Some of you may have been already following the recent spat of back-and-forth lawsuits between DISH Networks and a group of broadcasters. In brief, at January's CES (Consumer Electronics Show), DISH introduced a PVR (personal video recorder, also sometimes called a DVR aka digitial video recorder) called Hopper, which simultaneously recorded up to six programs

From Lipstick to Security: Facial Recognition Without High-Resolution Complexity

Face Detection, Face Recognition /

Speaking of face-related embedded vision topics…a month back, I told you how smartphone-based software was being used to make makeup suggestions. And ten months ago (for example), I told you about revolutionary techniques being employed to improve face recognition accuracy. Do you think I can link these two themes? Of course I can…with a little

Face Detection For Obscenity Prevention

Face Detection, Face Recognition /

Another day, another facial recognition-fueled controversy…although strictly speaking, this one involves less-complex face detection, not age, race, gender or specific-identity recognition…at least not yet, that is. The more "wired" among you may recall a short-lived (but technically still alive) Internet craze called Chatroulette. Via the aptly-named website, you were randomly connected with someone else on

The Evolution Of Gesture Interfaces: Leap Motion Achieves A Press Coverage Clean Sweep

Gesture Control /

We in the embedded vision industry live in amazing times, I'm regularly (and thankfully) reminded. Not a single day goes by lately that I'm not archiving an information tidbit (or, usually, multiple ones) for future consideration in a news writeup, an article, or a video interview. And the breakthroughs aren't just being covered by narrowly

RecognizeMe: Underwhelming Facial Recognition, As Least Initially

Face Detection, Face Recognition /

Back in early April, I mentioned a facial recognition program called RecognizeMe, available for "jailbroken" Apple iOS-based hardware. I went ahead and dropped $2.99 on the program, then installed it on my fourth-generation iPod touch and two iPhone 4s (AT&T and Verizon); my first-generation iPad doesn't have a front-facing camera and is therefore not a

Don’t Use Samsung’s New Smart TVs While Standing In Front Of A Window

Gesture Control /

Samsung's new webcam-implemented, function-augmented televisions may be controversial from a privacy standpoint, and may be sluggish and otherwise underwhelming on their operation. But the company sure seems to know how to promote them, as the above commercial suggests. 😉 Thanks to GigaOM for the heads-up. And a happy upcoming Memorial Day weekend to my Stateside
