Jeff Bier, Embedded Vision Alliance Founder, moderates a discussion panel comprised of the presenters in the "Using Processors for Embedded Vision" technical session at the September 2012 Embedded Vision Summit; Michael Tusch from Apical, Kamalina Srikant from National Instruments, and Ken Lee from VanGogh Imaging. The panelists discuss topics such as processing partitioning in heterogeneous systems, the likelihood (or not) of the emergence of a standardized architecture for vision processing, embedded vision algorithm implementers' wish lists with respect to compilers and other software tools, the comparative strengths and shortcomings of DSPs versus other processor option, the potential for emulating the human visual processing approach in embedded vision systems, and implementation improvements deriving from time-of-flight and other 3D camera approaches.website.
