Dear Colleague, Microsoft's Kinect peripheral for the Xbox 360 game console and Windows 7-based PCs singlehandedly brought awareness of vision-based applications such as gesture interfaces and facial recognition to the masses. It's also the embedded vision foundation for a plethora of other system implementations, either based on Microsoft's O/S and thereby leveraging the official Kinect

Dear Colleague, I've got Israel on the brain of late, it seems. And it's not just because the 40 days of Lent wrapped up a few weeks ago with Easter (roughly coincident with Passover for my Jewish friends and associates).

Dear Colleague, As I write these words, the Mobile World Congress show is underway in Barcelona, Spain. At this yearly event, one of the most important cellular communications conferences, mobile handset and tablet manufacturers and their service provider partners reveal their latest and greatest offerings. And alongside them are the silicon and software providers, unveiling

Dear Colleague, Welcome to Embedded Vision Insights, the newsletter of the Embedded Vision Alliance. The Embedded Vision Alliance is an industry partnership dedicated to helping engineers use embedded vision technology to design "machines that see." The Alliance currently comprises 18 companies, including leaders in semiconductors, tools, algorithms, cameras, and design services for embedded vision applications.

Dear Colleague, Welcome to the second edition of Embedded Vision Insights, the newsletter of the Embedded Vision Alliance. The Embedded Vision Alliance achieved a key milestone on September 20 with its successful premier Alliance Summit meeting, hosted by Alliance member Xilinx at its San Jose, CA facilities. The daylong series of briefings, planning sessions and

Dear Colleague, Welcome to the third edition of Embedded Vision Insights, the newsletter of the Embedded Vision Alliance. This past few weeks have been particularly newsworthy for camera-inclusive smartphones and tablets. Consider, for example, handsets such as the HTC MyTouch Slide 4G and its plethora of "power user" snapshot settings, the 1080p video capture capabilities
