Rajesh Mahapatra, Engineering Manager at Analog Devices, presents the "Multiple Uses of Pipelined Video Pre-Processor Hardware in Vision Applications" tutorial at the May 2014 Embedded Vision Summit. Significant resemblance and overlap exist among the pre-processing blocks of different vision applications. For instance, image gradients and edges have proven beneficial for a variety of applications, such
Simon Morris, CEO of CogniVue, presents the "Evolving Algorithmic Requirements for Recognition and Classification in Augmented Reality" tutorial at the May 2014 Embedded Vision Summit. Augmented reality (AR) applications are based on accurately computing a camera's 6 degrees of freedom (6DOF) position in 3-dimensional space, also known as its "pose". In vision-based approaches to AR,
Francis MacDougall, Senior Director of Technology at Qualcomm, presents the "Vision-Based Gesture User Interfaces" tutorial at the May 2014 Embedded Vision Summit. The means by which we interact with the machines around us is undergoing a fundamental transformation. While we may still sometimes need to push buttons, touch displays and trackpads, and raise our voices,
