Preliminary programme open for European Machine Vision Forum

The second European Machine Vision Forum takes place in Vienna from 6-8 September 2017, with a focus on the next generation of vision systems for industry, such as new modes of image acquisition, new hardware platforms, and advanced algorithms in order to solve more complex tasks with less effort. The forum is hosted and sponsored by the AIT Austrian Institute for Technology and the Heidelberg Collaboratory for Image Processing.

The second European Machine Vision Forum takes place in Vienna from 6-8 September 2017, with a focus on the next generation of vision systems for industry, such as new modes of image acquisition, new hardware platforms, and advanced algorithms in order to solve more complex tasks with less effort. The forum is hosted and sponsored by the AIT Austrian Institute for Technology and the Heidelberg Collaboratory for Image Processing.


Aimed at scientists, development engineers, software and hardware engineers, and programmers both from research and industry, it features plenary sessions with selected contributed and invited talks, a podium discussion, extended coffee and lunch breaks and evening sessions for networking, poster presentations as well as software demonstrations.

The preliminary program with invited talks is online and registration is open. Deadline for abstracts for contributed papers is 2 June and for posters, hardware and software demonstrations it is 11 August.

    'Keep it simple, stupid' is an oft-forgotten axiom but in terms of road user charging it is entirely appropriate. So says the ANWB's Ferry Smith. A couple of decades ago, it might have been largely true that the technology aspects of advanced road infrastructure were the main obstacles to deployment. However, 20 years or more of development have led to a situation where such 'obstacles' are often no more than a political fig-leaf. Area-wide Road User Charging (RUC) is a case in point; speak candidly to syst

    January 24, 2012
    IRD, Inc's Terry Bergan discusses future applications of weigh in motion technology. The application in recent years of Weigh In Motion (WIM) at tollgates has been driven by recognition of the fact that there is economic value, which can be levied, attached to Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) which haul laden (and are therefore heavy) rather than empty. As wear and damage to road surfaces increases exponentially with weight, the targeting of HGVs in particular makes sense from both the economic and maintenance p
