Synopsis

This book brings together a wealth of experiences from leading researchers in the field of Embedded Computer vision, from both academic and industrial research labs. Lately there is a major shift in the way computer vision applications are implemented and even developed. This book covers a broad range of challenges and trade offs brought by this paradigm shift. Part I, the introductory chapters, discusses pioneers in the field, providing an exposition of early work in the area necessary for understanding the present and future work. Part II, offers chapters, based on the most recent research and includes results from industry and academia. Finally the last part looks ahead, providing a sense of what major applications could be expected in the near future. This book is a welcome collection of references, ideal for researchers, practitioners and graduate students. It provides historical perspective, the latest research results and a vision for future developments in this new field of embedded computer vision.

Review

From the reviews:

“The book is a result of the Embedded Computer Vision Workshop 2007. ... provides a very good overview of the current state of the art in embedded computer vision and of the major trends and growing markets. ... it is a good start and provides an extensive list of references to look for if one wants to go into more detail. Overall I would recommend this book to anyone interested in getting into this exciting field.” (Marcus E. Hennecke, IAPR Newsletter, Vol. 33 (2), April, 2011)

From the Back Cover

Embedded Computer Vision, exemplified by the migration from powerful workstations to embedded processors in computer vision applications, is a new and emerging field that enables an associated shift in application development and implementation.

This comprehensive volume brings together a wealth of experiences from leading researchers in the field of embedded computer vision, from both academic and industrial research centers, and covers a broad range of challenges and trade-offs brought about by this paradigm shift. Part I provides an exposition of basic issues and applications in the area necessary for understanding the present and future work. Part II offers chapters based on the most recent research and results. Finally, the last part looks ahead, providing a sense of what major applications could be expected in the near future, describing challenges in mobile environments, video analytics, and automotive safety applications.
