The Backup Camera: Entrée To A Burgeoning Embedded Vision Automotive Era?

The presence of front-facing cameras built into modern cellular phones and tablet computers was initially justified for videoconferencing applications. Similarly, rear-facing cameras' primary function is to obsolete the historical need for separate standalone devices. But with the image sensors (and associated image processors) now in place, embedded vision visionaries are harnessing them for an abundance […]

Despite Economic Uncertainty, Video Surveillance Outlook Remains Bright

Wellingborough, UK – 6th December 2011. Whilst the worst of the first global recession has subsided, another, potentially larger and deeper downturn looms on the horizon. Despite this fairly terrifying spectre, IMS Research remains confident that demand for CCTV & video surveillance equipment will remain strong through 2012; growth for network video surveillance equipment sales

Mystery Chinese Desert Stripes: Vision Calibration Assistance for Spy Satellites?

Here's an odd one. While I've previously discussed the importance of robust imaging assemblies in military systems, my historical focus has been on drone aircraft, robots and autonomous vehicles. However, imaging is (perhaps obviously) a front-and-center function of satellites, both in terms of still and video image capture and subsequent analysis (in orbit and on

Dynamic Range And Edge Detection: An Example Of Embedded Vision Algorithms’ Dependence On In-Camera Image Processing

By Michael Tusch Founder and CEO Apical Limited This article will expand on the theme initiated in the premier article of this series, that of exploring how the pixel processing performed in cameras can either enhance or hinder the performance of embedded vision algorithms. Achieving natural or otherwise aesthetically pleasing camera images is normally considered

Selecting and Designing with an Image Sensor: The Tradeoffs You’ll Need to Master

By Brian Dipert Editor-In-Chief Embedded Vision Alliance Senior Analyst BDTI A diversity of image sensor options are available for your consideration, differentiated both in terms of their fundamental semiconductor process foundations and of their circuit (and filter, microlens and other supplement) implementations. Understanding their respective strengths and shortcomings is critical to making an appropriate product

Recent Investments: eyeSight Raises $4.2 Million From CEVA, Mitsui

Speaking of financial transactions involving recently discussed companies staffed by Israeli founders, eyeSight Mobile Technologies (who I mentioned earlier this month as being the technology basis for Pantech's latest gesture interface-capable camera phones) just a few days ago received a notable Series B incremental investment from a fellow Israeli firm, CEVA, as well as from

Recent Acquisitions: Microsoft Reportedly Buys VideoSurf

Remember about two months ago, when I admittedly somewhat critically discussed the VideoSurf camera phone application that enabled the identification of video content currently being displayed on a television or computer monitor? Apparently, Microsoft was more enthusiastic about the technology than I was, because a few days ago the company reportedly acquired VideoSurf for $70
