Machine Vision (MV) systems are ubiquitous, encompassing a wide range of applications from smart phones to ADAS and drones. Increasingly, these applications require intelligence at the edge or in the cloud, with FPGA and SoC based solutions forming the core of many MV systems.

Flemming Christensen, Sundance, will present the TULIPP project.

Key themes will include: OpenCV with FPGA / SoC, ADAS, Robotic Guided Vision / Drones, Industry 4.0, Defense, Machine Learning and much more.
