Thanks to improvements in processors, image sensors, and algorithms, more and more of our devices now — for the first time — are gaining the ability to see and understand the world around them. In this talk from the June 2015 Augmented World Expo, Jeff Bier (Founder of the Embedded Vision Alliance) highlights the opportunities […]
Mike Aldred, Electronics Lead at Dyson, presents the "Bringing Computer Vision to the Consumer" keynote at the May 2015 Embedded Vision Summit. While vision has been a research priority for decades, the results have often remained out of reach of the consumer. Huge strides have been made, but the final, and perhaps toughest, hurdle is

Pierre Paulin, R&D Director for Embedded Vision at Synopsys, presents the "Low-power Embedded Vision: A Face Tracker Case Study" tutorial at the May 2015 Embedded Vision Summit. The ability to reliably detect and track individual objects or people has numerous applications, for example in the video-surveillance and home entertainment fields. While this has proven to
This demonstration, which pairs a Freescale i.MX Quick Start board and CogniMem Technologies CM1K evaluation module, showcases how to use your eyes (specifically where you are looking at any particular point in time) as a mouse. Translating where a customer is looking to actions on a screen, and using gaze tracking to electronically control objects
