Description

This lab course will cover various interesting topics of Computer Vision useful for Robotic applications. The participants will start by implementing some fundamental computer vision algorithms. These basic components will be iteratively expanded as the course progresses resulting in the creation of a full featured visual processing pipeline that in turn can be used to solve complex robotic tasks, in particular SLAM. Participants will then select a specific project from a range of final project topics to further expand their skills and knowledge in desired area of computer vision as the completion of this course.
