The British Machine Vision Association (BMVA) is organising a technical meeting entitled 'Vision in an Increasingly Mobile World'. It will be held on 15 May 2013 in London, UK.
The ubiquitous and pervasive nature of modern mobile computing, in the form of smartphones, tablets and even low-footprint embedded systems in on-vehicle/autonomous deployment, has led to a vibrant new arena for focused computer vision research. This is coupled both with increasing mobile sensing quality and increased connectivity for cloud-enabled applications.
This development creates interesting opportunities and challenges for computer vision research. Present research in such areas is set against the backdrop of a range of new application domains, with an unprecedented mainstream consumer user base readily available.
The aim of this meeting is to bring together researchers and practitioners, from both industry and academia, interested in all aspects of mobile computer vision - be it within consumer devices, autonomous/embedded systems or novel deployment domains.
