OpenVL is the future of developer-friendly computer vision - existing vision frameworks provide access at a very low level, such as individual algorithm names (often named after their inventor), while OpenVL provides a higher-level abstraction to hide the details of sophisticated vision techniques: developers use a task-centred API to supply a description of the problem, and OpenVL interprets the description and provides a solution.

The OpenVL computer vision abstraction will support hardware acceleration and multiple platforms (mobile, cloud, desktop, console), and therefore also allows vendor-specific implementations. We are committed to making it an open API available to everyone (and hope to make it an open standard); Continue reading...

GRAND 2013

The third annual GRAND conference will take place 2nd-4th May 2012 in Montréal, Canada.

GRAND 2012 will showcase a multi-disciplinary programme of research and innovation spanning the broad spectrum of digital media, from researchers and institutions across Canada.

The conference, held at Le Centre Sheraton, Montréal, will kick off on the evening of Wednesday 2nd May, with an opening reception showcasing Posters and Demos. Conference sessions running Thursday 3rd May, and Friday 4th May, will feature an exciting line up of Plenary Speakers, Posters and Demos, Mashups (presentations), Research Notes (organised by GRAND HQP Co-Chairs) plus the wonderfully insane 2-Minute Madness.
