A Free, Open Source Optimized Computer Vision Library Maintained by Intel: Demos of Automatic Calibration, Retification, Stereo, Tracking and Object Recognition

active development for 2 years by a team of 11 researchers and programmers.
The library is open source, free for commercial or research use, optimized across
Intel's processor line. The library is now a vision community effort actively
maintained and supported by Intel.

The gist of the reasons our doing this are:
1) To accelerate computer vision research by creating a common, optimized
substrate for practitioners;
2) To create a market in consumer computer vision and then benefit thereby from
the resulting increase in demand for faster computers.

The library may be downloaded from:
http://www.intel.com/research/mrl/research/cvlib/

A web based user group (e.g. you can select to read on web only, no email) may
be joined by sending email to:
OpenCV-subscribe@egroups.com

I'll give an overview of the library, show some film clips of applications and then do
live demos of some or all of:
Automatic camera calibration,
Face tracking;
Face recognition,
Lucas-Kanade optical flow in pyramid;
Motion Templates for gesture recognition
