I'm not sure if my first message got through, so I'm sending it again... I wish to ask how much has been accomplished in the field of Artificial Vision. What sorts of things have been achieved in the field of computerized visual perception? To put it another way, what things is it possible to "perceive" with the computerized vision systems that have been devised to date? What progress has been made in artificial-vision algorithms and in artificial-vision hardware? I am sure that appropriate specialized hardware will be essential for artificial-vision applications, since the amount of raw data to be processed is enormous, and many of the fundamental operations are relatively simple and can be done in parallel. And that is why I asked about hardware. Has anyone published the kind of overview of the artificial-vision field that I have been asking for? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Loren Petrich, the Master Blaster: loren@sunlight.llnl.gov Since this nodename is not widely known, you may have to try: loren%sunlight.llnl.gov@star.stanford.edu
