Cyclops

• Concept
• Vision, immense power to disambiguate environment
• Embedded Imaging in sensor network
• Scalability in number
• Observations Close to the phenomena
• Multiple perspective
• Avoiding occlusion
• Challenge
• Low power
• On the order of host

• Progress
• First Generation of
• Cyclops
• Hardware
• CMOS Imager,
• MCU for inference,
• CPLD for frame grabber
• SRAM, FLASH
• Software
• Structural library
• Matrix, histogram, statistics
• High level library
• Background subtraction,

• Starting large scale platform

• Approach
• CMOS Imaging
• Low power
• Encapsulate Imaging
• Simple interface
• An inference engine
• Not a vision sensor, sensor based on vision
• Rethink and redesign the algorithms
• Lossy algorithms that reinforce in the network

• Applications
• Security
• Motion detection
• Interactive System
• Hand posture recognition
• System diagnostics
