Colloquium for Wednesday, April 12, 2006
| Speaker: |
Prof. Wayne Wolf, , Princeton University, Princeton, NJ
|
| Title: |
Distributed Smart Cameras: Algorithms and Architectures
|
| Abstract: |
Smart cameras use processors to analyze video in real time. They can
be used for tasks such as gesture recognition and tracking and in
applications such as law enforcement, medicine, and entertainment.
This talk will cover algorithmic and architectural aspects of smart
cameras studied by the Embedded Systems Group at Princeton. We will
first consider single-camera systems, including both algorithms and
architectures. We will then consider distributed smart cameras, which
operate on multiple video streams using distributed computing
techniques.
Biography:
Wayne Wolf is professor of electrical engineering at Princeton
University. Before joining Princeton in 1989, he was with AT&T Bell
Laboratories, Murray Hill, New Jersey. He received the B.S., M.S.,
and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from Stanford University
in 1980, 1981, and 1984, respectively. His research interests include
embedded computing, VLSI systems, and multimedia information systems.
He is the author of Computers as Components, FPGA-Based System Design,
and Modern VLSI Design (for which he won the ASEE Frederick E. Terman
Award). Wolf has been elected to Phi Beta Kappa and Tau Beta Pi. He
is a Fellow of the IEEE and ACM, an IEEE Computer Society Golden Core
Member, and a member of the SPIE and ASEE.
