Organized by: - IEEE Student Branch Computer Society Chapter in collaboration with Department of Computer Science and Engineering, SCIT, Manipal University, Jaipur 

Date: - October 11-12, 2014 (Saturday and Sunday)

Cost: Rs 1000 for per student

What is this workshop about?

Image Processing is a method to convert an image from one form to another, and perform some operations on it. Image Processing is a rapidly growing technology. The workshop will help students gain working knowledge about the various types of image acquisition and image recognition techniques (distinguish an object in an image).

Practical experience covering basic to advanced Image processing techniques Interactive Practical sessions on Traffic Light Recognition and processing methods Exposure to identification of the shape, color and tracking of an Object Participants will develop skills used in real time applications of Image processing.

Workshop structure: The workshop is split into 5 modules

• 1. Understanding concepts of Image Processing – Duration 3 hours
• 2. Practical session on Basic methods of Image acquisition – Duration 2 hours
• 3. Understanding the concepts of color recognition, object identification and tracking – Duration 2 hours
• 4. Hands on training on color recognition techniques – Duration 3 hours
• 5. Demonstration of identifying and tracking of an object – Duration 4 hours

Benefits to Participants:

• 1.      Gain good exposure on Open CV
