Objectives:
One of the cornerstones in Medialogy is to build systems that automatically react to humans in ways that may or may not involve visual output. In this module the focus is on doing so using visual computing, i.e., automatically analysing visual information recorded by one or more cameras. For example, a computer game controlled by human movements or a dynamic art installation reacting to the constellation of people in an environment. Having humans as end-users also means a need to consider what we can and cannot perceive, and how we use perceptual information in relation to digital media application.
The students will work with a concrete problem where automatic analysis of visual data is central. The problem will be analysed and a concept for a solution suggested. The concept (or parts hereof) will be designed, implemented and evaluated using relevant theories and methods from the sub-fields of visual computing: image processing, programming and perception.
As specified by the Study Board for Media Technology, a sub-theme description is formulated in connection with the project. In connection with the project a minimum of five related seminars /lectures are offered.
