Embedded 360° view vision-based systems with multiple high-resolution cameras have found their way into various applications such as video surveillance, object detection, motion analysis, etc. In such systems, multiple real-time camera streams (up to six) are processed together frame by frame, corrected for distortion and other image artifacts, adjusted for exposure and white balance, and […]

Every year we see amazing technology at CES, including innovations in automotive, smart robots, drones, AR/VR, smart home appliances and many other technologies. One of the things that’s exciting to follow is the advancement from expensive, futuristic gadgets to useful, practical devices. This year showed huge progress in that direction, but also included a fair
